Large-scale sequenc ing experiments provide fantastic opportunities to learn about human histo ry and biology if we can overcome computational and statistical challenges . I will discuss how simple mid-century statistical approaches\, such as t he jackknife and Kolmogorov equations\, can be combined in unexpected ways to solve partial differential equations\, optimize genomic study design\, and learn about the spread of modern humans since our common African orig ins.\n DTSTART:20170915T193000Z DTEND:20170915T203000Z LOCATION:Room 1205\, Burnside Hall\, CA\, QC\, Montreal\, H3A 0B9\, 805 rue Sherbrooke Ouest SUMMARY:Simon Gravel\, 9IÖÆ×÷³§Ãâ·Ñ URL:/mathstat/channels/event/simon-gravel-mcgill-unive rsity-270236 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
