Current understanding of the genetic control of complex trait variation - Genome-wide association studies and beyond.
Evolutionary Quantitative Genetics
Selective forces on quantitative traits and the maintenance of variation.
Variation in the Genome
Sequence, structural and epigenetic variation and its phenotypic consequences.
Advances from New Numerical Methods
Advances in our understanding of quantitative
traits from new statistical, computational and modelling approaches and utilisation of
computing power.
Opportunities from Technological Advances
