Paleontology, Systematics, and Molecular Biology: Short Course, Symposium, and Workshop, GSA Annual Meeting, Denver,Colorado, October 30 - November 2, 1988

为“研究和教学中的计算机辅助系统发育程序”专题讨论会和将于1988年10月与美国地质学会年会同时举行的“分子进化和化石记录”短期课程提供了支助。研讨会和短期课程的目的是让古生物学家了解分子进化和系统发育数据的计算机辅助操作方面的最新研究、方法和技术，以便他们能够立即将其纳入自己的教学和研究计划中。短期课程和专题讨论会都将增加带回家的“硬拷贝”计算机程序，这些程序将在他们自己的计算机上向他们介绍会议期间介绍的一些系统发育程序。短期课程和专题讨论会的结合将使分子进化和计算机辅助技术广泛地进入古生物学家的视野。

Support is provided for a symposium-work shop on "Computer Assisted Phylogeny Programs in Research and Teaching" and a short course on "Molecular Evolution and the Fossil Record" to be held in conjunction with the Annual Meeting of the Geological Society of America in October, 1988. The object of both the symposium and the short course is to acquaint paleontologists with the latest research, methods and techniques in molecular evolution and computer assisted manipulation of phylogenetic data, so that these can be incorporated immediately into their own programs of teaching and research. Both the short course and symposium will be augmented by take-home, "hard-copy" computer programs that will introduce them, on their own computers, to some of the phylogenetic programs presented during sessions. The conjunction of short course and symposium will bring molecular evolution and computer assisted techniques to a wide range of paleontologists.
