Half of the class will be reading/presenting classic and modern papers relevant to evolutionary genomics, in a "journal club" format. We will cover a broad range of topics, methods, and species. The other half will be devoted to evolutionary genomic data analysis: pairs of students will choose a data set (either their own data or published data) and a specific question, and then work throughout the quarter to answer their question.
