Dear all,

We are excited to announce our upcoming online Phylogenomics course, taking place from December 2-6.

In this course we will present theory and exercises to infer time-calibrated phylogenies from multi-locus genome data sets while accounting for confounding factors such as the identification of orthologuous sequences that are suitable as phylogenetic markers, the selection of appropriate models of sequence evolution, and the detection of gene-tree discordance due to incomplete lineage sorting and introgression.

Course Highlights:

• Course website: https://www.physalia-courses.org/courses-workshops/phylogenomics/
• Format: Online (12:00-18:00 Berlin time)
• Topics Covered:

1 - Phylogenetic inference methods (Maximum Likelihood, Bayesian inference)

2 - Multispecies Coalescent Model and gene flow analysis

3 - Divergence-time estimation techniques

Who Should Attend: This course is perfect for researchers, PhD students, postdocs and researchers who plan to infer phylogenetic relationships and divergence times from multilocus data, with little or no prior experience. Basic knowledge of UNIX and command-line tools is required.

Why Attend? By the end of this course, you'll have the skills to accurately infer time-calibrated phylogenies from genome-scale data, addressing key challenges like gene-tree discordance and model selection.
