Summary:Ronquist, Kudlicka, Senderov and colleagues present universal probabilistic programming as a powerful method for modeling and inference in statistical phylogenetics. They provide an accessible introduction to these techniques and apply them in inferring complex patterns of diversification and turnover in birds.
