Introduction to R and R graphics (ggplot2), Wright Fisher simulations, Coalescent simulations, application of neutrality tests, basic handling of NGS data, simulations of quantitative traitsPre-requisites: basic knowledge of R and of the UNIX command lineGoals:
Students are familiar with the R programming language and commonly used tools in population genetics (MS, PAML, alignment tools). The students are able to simulate neutral and selective processes in populations. They can apply widely used neutrality tests to genome scale data.
