Phylodynamics for Single Cell Genomics

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

This project generates the mathematical framework required to look at single cell data in developmental systems and tissues. All cells in a multi-cellular organism derive from a single ancestral cell, generally the fertilised egg cell. Phylodynamics provides a framework to analyse and model this data, by connecting the shared ancestry of cells in an organism to the cell population and tissue dynamics. By developing the mathematical and statistical foundations for the analysis of single cell data in a phylodynamic framework we will establish a powerful new computational tools for the analysis of tissues and developmental processes.
