Dear Colleagues, Registration is open for the course "AN INTRODUCTION TO PHYLOGENETICS ANALYSIS USING R - Second Edition". INSTRUCTORS: Dr. Emmanuel Paradis (Institut de Recherche pour le Développement, France) and Dr. Klaus Schliep (Universidad de Vigo, Spain). DATES: May 4-8, 2015 More information: http://www.transmittingscience.org/courses/phylo/phylogeny-with-r/ or wrtiting to [log in to unmask] This course is for biologists dealing with the analysis of multiple molecular sequences at several levels: Populations, species, clades, communities. These biologists address questions relative to the evolutionary relationships among these sequences, as well as the evolutionary forces structuring biodiversity at different scales. The objectives are: (i) to learn the theorical bases phylogenetic analysis, (ii) to know how to choose a strategy of molecular data analysis at the inter‐ or intraspecific levels, (iii) to be able to initiate a phylogenetic analysis starting from the files of molecular sequences until the interpretation of the results and the graphics.The software used for this course will be centered on the R language for statistics. This will include the use of specialized packages particularly ape, phangorn, and adegenet. PLACE: Facilities of the Centre of Restauració i Interpretació Paleontologica, Els Hostalets de Pierola, Barcelona (Spain). Organized by: Transmitting Science, the Institut Catalá de Paleontologia M. Crusafont and the Centre de Restauració i Interpretació Paleontologica de Els Hostalets de Pierola. Places are limited and will be covered by strict registration order. Please feel free to distribute this information between your colleagues if you consider it appropriate.
