Dr.Ambrosio Torres Galvis

As a researcher in the field of systematics, my work focuses on developing and evaluating phylogenetic methods to reconstruct the historical relationships among organisms. This includes approaches that use molecular and morphological datasets, while also incorporating modern sources of information such as genomic and morphometric data, to infer the underlying patterns of speciation and diversification. Additionally, a major part of my work involves discovering new taxa by developing innovative methods for managing and updating taxonomic databases. This is crucial for ensuring that the vast amounts of data generated from molecular and morphological studies are accurately utilized, classified, and organized. Overall, my research aims to advance our understanding of the systematics of the tree of life, providing relevant information to preserve the incredible diversity of species on Earth.
