Hi,
A one week course on study design of phylogenomics studies will be held
in Lund on 5th-9th of May. The course is unique in that there will be
*no hands on computer labs*, but focus on how to plan, set up and run a
next generation sequencing phylogenomics project. I believe that it will
be useful for PhD students, post docs but also for PIs.
Please pass this on to anyone you think may be interested in
participating in this course!

*Course outline: *The course comprises lectures, discussions, and group
activities focused on design of phylogenomic studies. Expected learning
outcomes are that participants should be able to recognize, articulate,
differentiate, explain, compare and apply core concepts of
phylogenomics, recall relevant literature, and design studies to solve
relevant phylogenetic problems using genomic data (broadly defined).
The course is given by *Associate Professor Michael Cummings *at the
Institute for Advanced Computer Studies, University of Maryland. Michael
has published extensively in molecular evolution, phylogenetics,
computational biology and bioinformatics, computer science, and
bioinformatics education. He has directed or co-directed the Workshop on
Molecular Evolution (given e.g. at Woods Hole, USA) and the Workshop on
Comparative Genomics (given e.g. in C(eský Krumlov, the Czech Republic).
