About the course

We are extremely happy to announce 10th edition of Poznan Summer School of Bioinformatics that will take place on 19-23 August 2013. This year the course will cover several areas of research at the interface between molecular biology and evolution focusing on using genetic and genomic data to infer phylogenetic relationships, identify unknown samples, gain knowledge about mechanisms of molecular evolution. The course is tailored for those who already have some basic knowledge in bioinformatics and find it necessary and interesting to learn more about bioinformatics applications in molecular evolution and phylogenomics.

The course consists of lectures and hands-on - this combination should fit best your needs as you have a chance to try out the discussed methods yourself. The following topics will be covered:
