The UBC Bioimaging Facility is a multi-user microscopy facility that is open to everyone and provides both training and service. The facility has been known as the most comprehensive biological imaging facility in Western Canada. We are located…
This workshop is a short but intense introduction to the practical application of a variety of phylogenetic methods. Our goal is to help students, staff or faculty get started or progress with the methods they need for their research.
Topics include:
1) How do I run the computer programs?
2) How do the analytical…
