Daniel Rabosky is a Professor in the Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology at the University of Michigan, where he also serves as Curator at the Museum of Zoology. His research program spans macroevolution, speciation dynamics, and phylogenetic comparative methods, with particular expertise in Australian reptiles and squamate evolution. Rabosky maintains an active laboratory and is currently seeking new graduate students and postdoctoral fellows to join his research team. Rabosky's research interests focus on macroevolutionary patterns and processes, particularly the connections between microevolutionary dynamics and large-scale biodiversity patterns. His work integrates phylogenetic comparative methods with ecological and morphological data to understand speciation processes, adaptive radiations, and the evolutionary dynamics of reptile communities, especially Australian skinks. He has made significant contributions to methodological developments in evolutionary biology through software tools like BAMM (Bayesian Analysis of Macroevolutionary Mixtures) and BAMMtools for analyzing evolutionary rate heterogeneity across phylogenetic trees. Analysis of Rabosky's recent publication record reveals a strong focus on evolutionary theory, methodological development, and empirical studies of reptile diversification. His work spans theoretical macroevolution, phylogenetic comparative methods, Australian herpetology, and the connections between population-level processes and macroevolutionary patterns. The research demonstrates increasing integration of genomic data with traditional morphological and ecological approaches, reflecting broader trends in evolutionary biology. Rabosky actively mentors graduate students including Matheus Januário and Tristan Schramer, and supervises postdoctoral fellows Michael Harvey, Jonathan Mitchell, Sonal Singhal, and Rudolf von May. His laboratory receives research funding supporting multiple projects in macroevolutionary dynamics, with recent grants likely supporting work on the connections between metapopulation ecology and speciation rates, as evidenced by his 2025 Ecology Letters paper.

Dr. Avniel Singh Ghuman is an Associate Professor in the Department of Neurological Surgery at the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine. He serves as Director of the Cognitive Neurodynamics Lab and plays a key role in advancing MEG (Magnetoencephalography) Research at the university. His work bridges clinical neurosurgery with fundamental neuroscience research to understand visual perception mechanisms. Dr. Ghuman's educational background includes: BA in Math and Physics from The Johns Hopkins University (1998) PhD in Biophysics from Harvard University (2007) Postdoctoral training at the National Institute of Mental Health Dr. Ghuman's research focuses on how the brain transforms visual input into meaningful perception of objects, faces, words, and social images in real-world contexts. His laboratory employs both invasive (intracranial EEG) and non-invasive (MEG) techniques to examine the spatiotemporal dynamics of neural activity during visual processing. The lab integrates multivariate machine learning methods, network analysis, and direct neural stimulation to investigate information processing at both local brain regions and distributed network levels. Recent work has pioneered methods for studying brain activity during authentic social interactions and natural behavior. His publication record demonstrates significant contributions to understanding real-world face perception, neural dynamics during natural behavior, and the application of advanced analytical techniques to brain imaging data. His research has revealed how brain network dynamics form a 'punctuated equilibrium' of stable states with transitory bursts between them, coinciding with behavioral shifts in everyday activities. Dr. Ghuman has received notable recognition for his work: Young Investigator Award from NARSAD (2012) Award for Innovative New Scientists from the National Institute of Mental Health (2015) His research has been featured in prominent media outlets including MIT Technology Review, The Wall Street Journal, and Carnegie Mellon University publications. As Director of the Cognitive Neurodynamics Lab, Dr. Ghuman leads a research program that has advanced our understanding of how the brain processes visual information in real-world environments, with implications for both fundamental neuroscience and clinical applications.
