Application of Population Genetics Theory
Winter School, 20 - 23 March 2017 in Oberaudorf
The winter school “Application of Population Genetics Theory” will focus on providing an
introduction to population genetics/genomics theory as well as hands on applications to
polymorphism data analysis. The two main questions to be addressed in the winter school
are 1) to understand how genetic polymorphism is shaped by the neutral evolutionary forces
(drift, demography, migration and recombination) and by natural selection (positive, purifying
or balancing selection), and 2) how to search for genes undergoing selection by
disentangling the effect of these forces in genome wide polymorphism data.
