This EU has three objectives:
1) deepen knowledge of concepts in genetics and evolutionary genomics such as linkage disequilibrium, selection, coalescent theory, detection of natural selection and evolutionary forces acting on genome evolution and the process of genomic speciation.
2) To propose a panorama of research themes in evolutionary genomics in the form of pedagogical seminars: molecular evolution, evolutionary genomics of endosymbioses, chromosomal evolution and molecular evolution.
3) Finally, the EU proposes a project of bioanalysis of an empirical dataset to understand the analysis in evolutionary genomics and to rub shoulders with the bioinformatics aspects increasingly developed in the discipline.
Evolutionary ecology

Faculty of Science
"The objective of this course is to complete the first semester's teaching by developing the problems related to the evolution of phenotypes and the main associated methodological approaches. The lectures will address the evolution of different types of traits (life history traits, traits involved in reproductive strategies, traits involved in biotic interactions, quantitative traits). The main approaches covered include game theory formalization, adaptive dynamics, quantitative genetic approaches, and the work of confronting theoretical predictions with empirical data. Coursework includes:
1) lectures on the main concepts of evolutionary ecology;
2) tutorials focused on document studies and exercises".
