Workshop: Introduction to Landscape Genetics

December 6, 2019

FRIDAY, DEC. 6, 2019

9:30-4:30PM

The YIBS Center for Genetic Analyses of Biodiversity invites you:

Join us in a one day workshop where we will cover the basics of data preparation and walk through methods for modeling how landscape and environment shape population genetic structure. We will cover the basics of genetic and geographic data preparation, provide time for a hands-on activity looking at the landscape genetics in Aedes aegypti mosquitoes, and finish-up with a presentation of two case studies on urban rats and tsetse flies (vectors of African sleeping sickness).

Please see our flyer for more details.
