An introduction to core principles of the modeling and investigation of biological data using quantitative models applied to genomic and other data. The course focuses on applications of quantitative modeling methods to study of the evolution and ecology to natural populations of animals, plants, and fungi. No specific course is required as a formal prerequisite. This course is designed to be accessible to students from many degree paths, including both biology students interested in learning genomic quantitative analysis and informatics/statistics students interested in learning biological applications. We will discuss all statistical models in this course from the ground up and review core genetics principles as we go.
