Very excited to share our progress in deep neural networks that reconstruct phylogenetic trees! Outstanding work by @lblassel.bsky.social
We’re very excited to finally share our latest work:
Phyloformer 2, a deep end-to-end phylogenetic reconstruction method: arxiv.org/abs/2510.12976
Using neural posterior estimation, it outperforms Phyloformer 1 and maximum-likelihood methods under simple and complex evolutionary models.

Here, the potential of horizontal gene transfer detection methods were explored, based on phylogenies, to detect & quantify ghost diversity. What did they find? Read the full paper to find out (2/2)👇🧪🌍

Gene flow can reveal ghost lineages
Abstract. Ghost species, encompassing extinct, unknown, and unsampled taxa, vastly outnumber those typically included in phylogenetic analyses. This hidden
