Description

New techniques for sequencing, genetic typing, and high throughput expression measurement are making very large data sets available for genetic and genomic research. Stochastic modeling is paramount to making sense of much of the information. Here a group of young cross-disciplinary researchers present model-based analyses based on numerical likelihood methods.
