Mike Steel, University of Canterbury, M.Steel@math.canterbury.ac.nz
Presented under the auspices of the Special Focus on Computational and Mathematical Epidemiology.

DIMACS Tutorial on Phylogenetic Trees and Rapidly Evolving Pathogens, June 19 - 20, 2006.

DIMACS Workshop on Phylogenetic Trees and Rapidly Evolving Diseases, June 21 - 22, 2006.

DIMACS First Working Group on Phylogenetic Trees and Rapidly Evolving Diseases I, September 7 - 8, 2004.

Workshop Program:

 9:30 - 10:00 Breakfast and Registration

10:00 - 12:00 Working group and associated postdocs/students to meet 
              for a forum.  Topics for discussion:
          
              1. What are the key lessons to be learnt from the preceding 2 days?
 
              2. What are the key areas that need further developments for 
                 Trees and Pathogens?

              3. What are the strategies to develop these areas?


12:00 -  1:00 Lunch

 1:00 -  2:30 Continuation

              4. What is needed (skills, hardware, data) to develop these areas?

              5. What does the future hold for the interaction between phylogenetics
                 and molecular epidimology?

 2:30         Close of working group
