COURSE ANNOUNCEMENT

Please feel free to forward this message to who might be interested.


Dear Colleagues,
ELIXIR-IIB is pleased to announce the fourth edition of the EMBO practical
course in population genomics, this year there will be added emphasis on
programming and machine learning applied to population genomics.

Here is the link to the course page:
https://elixir-iib-training.github.io/website/2020/04/01/population-genomics-procida.html
*Registration deadline is 28 January 2020*

This EMBO Practical Course will cover coalescent theory, the effect of
demography in space and time, genetic clustering, the detection and
quantification of admixture and selection. Lectures on these topics will be
complemented by hands-on computer practicals introducing a wide range of
software packages, both in R and Python.

This course is aimed at evolutionary biologists who already have basic
bioinformatics skills. The main criterion for selection will be how much a
candidate can benefit from the course. This implies that PhD students and
Postdoc researchers will likely be favoured; however, applications from
candidates at all levels will be considered.
*Fellowships to cover travel expenses and for childcare are available.*

Kind regards,

Loredana Le Pera (ELIXIR-IIB Deputy Training Coordinator, IBIOM-CNR,
IBPM-CNR, Italy)
