Estimad@s colegas,
Quedan unas pocas plazas disponibles en el curso “Bayesian phylogenetic inference with BEAST2”.
Sesiones en vivo en directo el 18, 20, 22, 25, 27 and 29 de noviembre, de 15:00 a 18:30 (zona horaria de Madrid)
Impartido por: Dr. Joëlle Barido-Sottani (Ecole Normale Supérieure de Paris, France) and Dr. Bethany Allen (ETH Zurich, Switzerland)
Resumen del curso (en inglés, que es el idioma en el que se impartirá el mismo):
Bayesian phylogenetic inference is a powerful tool for
reconstructing phylogenies while accounting for complex evolutionary
dynamics. It allows prior knowledge to be integrated into the inference,
and also provides a detailed picture of the uncertainty present in the
dataset. However, the number and complexity of the available models and options
can be daunting for users, and can make it difficult to apply inference tools
effectively in practice.
In this workshop, participants will learn the theoretical concepts underlying
the different models involved in Bayesian phylogenetic inference, and get hands-on
experience using these models in BEAST2. Particular attention will be given
to more complex tree models, such as the fossilized birth-death model used to
integrate past information into phylogenies, as well as rate-heterogeneous
models which allow for variations in evolutionary dynamics across clades.
Finally, the course will give practical information on setting up and
troubleshooting analyses in BEAST2.
