Methods for data aquisition and analysis used in molecular ecology, population and conservation genetics, quantitative genetics, phylogenetics and phylogeography. Students will learn how to generate and analyze both classical and state-of-the-art (i.e. next generation) DNA sequencing methods.In the practical part of the course, students will work to perform DNA extractions, PCR amplification, and DNA sequencing.
At the end of the course, students should be prepared to choose appropriate molecular methods for their research questions and analyze the results. They will understand the advantages and disadvantages of different methods, and will have sufficient laboratory experience to to start a research project.
The students will present the results of their practical to the group, perform independent computational analyses, and produce a final lab report.
