9710436 Weir A summer institute in statistical genetics will be held at North Carolina State University for two weeks in June of 1997, 1998 and 1999. The institute will consist of a series of two- or three-day workshops designed to teach current statistical methods to geneticists. As increasing amounts of molecular genetic data become available, there is an increasing need for statistical analyses to extract all the information and make inferences. The need has become urgent in the search for genes affecting both discrete and quantitative traits, in the interpretation of DNA and protein sequence data for evolutionary studies, and in the use of genetic profiles for individual identification. The institute will offer instruction in each of these areas, as well as in basic statistical concepts. Because long-term progress in interpreting genetic data is going to require the involvement of people with advanced statistical training and skills, the institute will also offer a workshop in basic genetics for statisticians. This application is for funding to allow students, who would otherwise be unable, to attend the institute.

9710436威尔统计遗传学夏季研究所将于1997年6月、1998年6月和1999年6月在北卡罗来纳州立大学举行为期两周的会议。该研究所将由一系列为期两到三天的研讨会组成，旨在向遗传学家传授当前的统计方法。随着越来越多的分子遗传数据可用，人们越来越需要统计分析来提取所有信息并做出推断。在寻找既影响离散性状又影响数量性状的基因方面，在解释用于进化研究的DNA和蛋白质序列数据，以及在使用遗传图谱进行个体识别方面，已经变得迫切需要。该研究所将在上述每个领域以及基本统计概念方面提供指导。由于在解释基因数据方面的长期进展将需要拥有高级统计培训和技能的人员的参与，该研究所还将为统计学家提供基础遗传学研讨会。这份申请是为了提供资金，让原本无法进入该学院就读的学生入学。
