課程概述 |
This is a basic and practical course intended for senior undergraduate and graduate students with already strong knowledge in basic biology. Students who are interested in any fields in biology are all welcome, because all of the biological phenomena are the product of the evolution. We will learn basic but important mathematical methods for analyzing evolutionary dynamics in biological systems. The course is designed for hand-on work with the empirical data. We will also use well-developed software but we do not need skills in computer programming for our practical work.
Major topics include:
1. Basics in evolution
2. Neutral evolution and natural selection
3. Classical and modern population genetics
4. Phylogeography |
|
課程目標 |
The objective is to provide students with mathematical, theoretical, and practical skills for evolutionary biology (molecular ecology, population genetics, phylogeography), which are necessary for mechanistic and quantitative understanding of complexity in biological systems. |
|
課程要求 |
Students must have already taken the course of molecular phylgenetics or related courses. |
