course description
The Biodiversity and Global Change Research Center - Universidad Autónoma de Madrid (CIBC-UAM) offers this intensive theoretical and hands-on course aimed at advanced graduate students, postdoctoral fellows, and senior researchers who seek to stay updated on the hot topics in evolutionary developmental biology research.
For four days, internationally renowned experts will teach basic concepts and skills in evolutionary developmental biology, with a particular emphasis on the latest techniques developed. Additionally, all sessions will include a practical component where students will perform data analysis and interpretation themselves.
This course, with a strong theoretical foundation and an intense practical component, aims to update students' knowledge in evolutionary developmental biology and stimulate their creativity, expanding the range of techniques to be used in their respective research projects.
specific topics include:
comparative transcriptomics
single cell transcriptomics
bulk transcriptomics
spatial transcriptomics
ATAC-seq technique
phylogenomics
comparative genomics
gene regulation
plastic phenotypes
evolutionary novelties
