A flourishing area of interaction between mathematics, statistics, computer science and biology, "phylogenetics" is the reconstruction and analysis of phylogenetic (evolutionary) trees and networks based on inherited characteristics. The main role of phylogenetic techniques lies in evolutionary biology, where it is used to infer historical relationships between species. However the methods are also relevant to a diverse range of fields including epidemiology, ecology, medicine, as well as linguistics and cognitive psychology.
