  1. Shown are all courses with a duration of two weeks or more that focus on the use of bioinformatics applied to evolutionary questions and were advertized through Evoldir (https://evol.mcmaster.ca/evoldir.html) between 2017 and 2021. The numbers of participants and faculty members also refer to courses in these years, counting both faculty members that are part of the workshop team as well as invited faculty. Courses are sorted by organization
