Title Computing Stochastic Models in Evolutionary Biology

Excerpt Probability and stochasticity underlie our understanding of evolutionary and ecological processes, but many students don’t get to experience these concepts without a background in mathematics or computer science. This course explores the fundamentals of modelling and quantitative approaches in ecology, evolution, and organismal biology in an accessible way. We will cover the probabilistic foundations of […]

Title Modeling in Ecology and Evolution

Excerpt Mathematics is central to science because it provides a rigorous way to go from a set of assumptions to their logical consequences. In ecology & evolution this might be predicting how a virus will spread and evolve, how climate change will impact a threatened population, or when natural selection will facilitate speciation. In this course you’ll learn how to build, […]
