DIMACS Minisymposium on Advances in Phylogenetics Inference Methods

March 20, 1998
DIMACS Center, Rutgers University

Organizers:
Daniel Huson, DIMACS, Princeton University, huson@math.princeton.edu
Shibu Yooseph, DIMACS, Rutgers University, yooseph@dimacs.rutgers.edu
Presented under the auspices of the DIMACS Special Year in Mathematical Support of Molecular Biology.

Phylogeny inference plays an important role in several scientific disciplines such as evolutionary biology, molecular systematics, and historical linguistics. This minisymposium will cover recent advances in phylogeny inference methods and will focus on various issues including appropriate models for bio-molecular sequence data, sequence alignment techniques, and new techniques for handling highly divergent data sets.
