DESCRIPTION:This course will teach you how to use molecular data to constru
 ct and interpret phylogenies. We will start by introducing basic concepts 
 in phylogenetic analysis\, what trees represent and how to interpret them.
  We will then cover how to produce a multiple sequence alignment from DNA 
 and protein sequences\, and the pros and cons of different alignment algor
 ithms. You will then learn about different methods of phylogenetic inferen
 ce\, with a particular focus on maximum likelihood and how to assess confi
 dence in your tree using bootstrap resampling. Finally\, we will introduce
  how Bayesian methods can help to estimate the uncertainty in the inferred
  tree parameters as well as incorporate information for more advanced/besp
 oke phylogenetic analysis. \n\n\nIf you do not have a University of Cambri
