The MEEP Lab has run the annual Sydney Phylogenetics Workshop at the University of Sydney since 2010. This workshop provides an introduction to phylogenetic trees, evolutionary models, phylogenetic methods, maximum likelihood, Bayesian inference, molecular dating, and phylogenomics.

The 16th annual Sydney Phylogenetics Workshop will be held on 26–27 June 2025 at the University of Sydney.

This will be a free workshop but will be limited to 40 in-person attendees. We intend to run the workshop in a partially hybrid format so that up to 100 online attendees will be able to view the lectures. For in-person attendance, priority will be given to applicants at early career stages (students and postdocs) and those who will benefit the most from the workshop in the near future. Details about the application process will be posted here in April.

Teaching materials from the most recent workshop are available on Github. These include lecture slides and notes for the practical exercises.
