European Institute in Statistical Genetics
13-15 June and 25-29 June 2012
The European Institute in Statistical Genetics will run in Edinburgh (UK) in June 2012, on either side of the 4th
International Conference on Quantitative Genetics 2012. The Institute consists of a series of two-and-a-half day courses
designed to introduce geneticists to modern methods of statistical analysis and to introduce statisticians to the
statistical challenges posed by modern genetic data. Each course is taught by leading academics in the field, and
prerequisites are minimal.
Courses are available in the following topics:
1. Genomic Prediction: Ben Hayes
2. Genetics of Competition: Peter Bijma and Bill Muir
3. Advanced R for Genetic Analysis: Thomas Lumley and Ken Rice
4. Population Genetic Data Analysis: Jérome Goudet and Bruce Weir
5. Gene Expression Profiling: Greg Gibson and John Storey
6. Mixed Models in Quantitative Genetics: Bill Muir and Bruce Walsh
7. MCMC for Genetics: Eric Anderson and Matthew Stephens
8. Plant and Animal Association Mapping: Peter Bradbury and Michel Georges
9. Inference of Relationships and Relatedness: Eric Anderson and Elizabeth Thompson
