Detecting Quantitative Trait Loci (QTLs) - Bruce Walsh Lecture

Explore the intricacies of detecting Quantitative Trait Loci (QTLs) in this comprehensive lecture by Bruce Walsh, presented as part of the "Theoretical and Empirical Approaches to Understand Polygenic Adaptation" program at the International Centre for Theoretical Sciences. Delve into the complex world of polygenic traits and their genetic underpinnings, learning how to identify and analyze the multiple genetic variants that contribute to phenotypic variation. Gain valuable insights into the latest theoretical and empirical approaches used to understand polygenic adaptation, a crucial aspect of evolutionary biology. This in-depth presentation is ideal for PhD students, postdocs, and researchers interested in quantitative evolutionary biology, evolutionary genetics, and the genetic architecture of complex traits.
