<div><br>
</div>
<div>The "phylogenetic tree" model has been used by scientists for 150 years to</div>
<div>describe evolutionary history.</div>
<div>Due to its limitations, the more powerful "phylogenetic network" model is</div>

<div><br>
</div>
<div>(b) publish research papers in international conference proceedings and</div>
<div>journals, as well as conduct presentations.</div>
