Center of Genomics, Evolution and Medicine

THE TARTU SUMMER SCHOOL ON EVOLUTION, GENETICS AND MEDICINE 2022

This is the second school of a series of annual international courses that brings together evolution, genetics and medicine. The school is organised by the cGEM group at the Institute of Genomics, University of Tartu, Estonia (cgem.ut.ee).

 

The school will be held online November 28 – December 2 and will be free of charge.

The course is focussed on methods and resources for identifying the present-day consequences of past natural selection for phenotypic variation and susceptibility to disease, and will cover advanced methods for inferring evolutionary histories from genomics data and linking them to large-scale genomic and functional datasets. Lectures introducing theoretical concepts and methods will be combined with workshops designed to give hands-on experience.
