LANDSCAPE GENETICS READING GROUP

Please join us in exploring the emerging field of landscape genetics - 
integrating population genetics and landscape ecology.  We will strive to
better understand both spatial and molecular aspects of the field.

SCHEDULE OF MEETINGS

We will meet every other week alternating Tuesdays and Thursdays.

Next meeting - Feb 8 - Fat Tuesday
