Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolThomas Guillerme is a NERC Fellow and evolutionary biologist with 12 years of research experience bridging descriptive palaeontology and modern phylogenomic and mathematical modelling approaches. Based in Sheffield and with prior posts at the University of Queensland and Imperial College London, he studies macroevolution and macroecology to unravel the history of life using integrative, data-driven methods. He blends field-informed taxonomy and fossil expertise with bioinformatics pipelines and phylogenomic inference, often turning messy paleontological data into testable evolutionary models. An adventurous thinker, his interests range from rigorous methodological development to playful detours like “beer taxonomy,” reflecting a curiosity that fuels unconventional insights.
