Summary

The fossilized birth–death process is introduced—a fossil calibration method that unifies extinct and extant species with a single macroevolutionary model, eliminating the need for ad hoc calibration priors and yielding more accurate node age estimates while providing a coherent measure of statistical uncertainty.
