Miguel DE NAVASCUES

Chargé de recherche, INRAE

Axe(s)

I am a permanent researcher (Chargé de Recherche INRAE) at the CBGP (Centre de Biologie pour la Gestion des Populations) at Montpellier. I work on the development and evaluation of statistical approaches for the analysis of population genetic data for the inference of demographic history and detection of loci under selection. Currently I am focused on simulation-based approaches for the joint inference of demography and selection from temporal data.
