This laboratory experience explores some of the molecular methods used to study principles of evolutionary change. The laboratory will include hands-on experience with molecular techniques (including exposure to current next-generation sequencing technology) and phylogenetic analysis using real world experimental datasets. The scientific method, data analysis, interpretation within an evolutionary context, and scientific communication will be emphasized.
