The Researcher’s Guide to Population Genomic
2025-08-05
Preface
Motivation
This book was created to help anyone interested in analyzing population genomic data. I have spent many hours in my Ph.D. and post-doc trying to develop and understand scripts to analyze data. I hope that this book makes someone’s life easier and provides a clear and concise explanation of commonly used population genomic analyses. It is a work in progress, so feel free to reach out with any comments, suggestions, or if you would like to contribute a chapter.
