"#### Course content\r\n\r\nThe aim of this workshop is to provide an introduction to commonly used methods in population genomics. As the focus of the course is on hands-on work, the topics have been designed to cover the fundamental analyses that are common in many population genomics studies. The course consists of lectures and exercises, with a focus on the practical aspects of analyses. Whereas lectures introduce some background theory, their primary aim is to set the stage for accompanying exercises.\r\n\r\nTopics covered will include:\r\n- Foundations of population genetics\r\n- Introduction to simulation and the coalescent\r\n- Basics of variant calling\r\n- Variant filtering and sequence masks\r\n- Characterization and interpretation of DNA sequence variation\r\n- Calculation and interpretation of summary statistics from variation data\r\n- Investigating population structure with admixture modelling and principal component analyses\r\n- Demographic modelling using sequentially Markovian coalescent models and linkage disequilibrium\r\n- Selection scans\r\n\r\n#### Important dates and information\r\nApplication opens: 2024-09-09\r\nApplication closes: 2024-10-15\r\nConfirmation to accepted students: 2024-10-30\r\n\r\nmore information can be found on the [course website](https://uppsala.instructure.com/courses/101465)\r\n\r\n#### Course fee\r\nA course fee* of 3000 SEK  for academic participants and 15000 SEK for non-academic participants will be invoiced to accepted participants.
