Phylogenetics workshop

What can I get from my phylogenetic tree?

A journal club on the analyses that can be performed on trees and networks was held in Montréal, at the McGill Biology department, on June 21, 2011. Feel free to ask the QCBS research professionals for a workshop specifically designed for your and your QCBS colleagues needs.

General goal: Learn more about the types of analyses that can be performed on phylogenetic trees or networks; and how they can be useful for biodiversity science.

Format: The meeting had a “Journal Club” format, where each participant or team presented (in French or English) the methods, programs and softwares of an inspiring article that uses phylogenies to better address issues of biodiversity science.

A more lengthy report of the discussions is available in the QCBS wiki, and a few presentations are posted on the QCBS vimeo channel.
