The Case for Genetic Genealogies in Population Genomics

Explore the importance of genetic genealogies in population genomics through this informative lecture by Ilan Gronau at the Computational Genomics Summer Institute (CGSI) 2022. Delve into the latest research and methodologies for inferring ancestral recombination graphs and whole-genome histories in large population datasets. Examine case studies on rapid avian radiation, ancient gene flow between early modern humans and Neanderthals, and genome-wide genealogy estimation for thousands of samples. Gain insights into how genetic genealogies contribute to our understanding of selective sweeps, population differentiation, and evolutionary history. Learn about cutting-edge tools and techniques such as ARGweaver and their applications in deciphering complex genomic patterns across diverse species.
