Dear colleagues:
 
This is the last call for the workshop "QUANTITATIVE CLADISTICS AND USE OF 
TNT", June 3-7, 2013. Instructors: Dr. Goloboff and Dr. Szumik (Conicet, 
Argentine). More information: http://www.transmittingscience.org/cladistics.htm.
 
The workshop will cover the basics of parsimony analysis and character 
optimization, tree-searches, diagnosing and summarizing results efficiently, 
and measuring group supports. It will have  extensive hands-on exercises which 
will help participants get familiar with the main aspects of phylogenetic 
analysis using TNT. The workshop will make extensive use of TNT. There will 
also be a demonstration and some practice with GB->TNT, a program to create TNT 
matrices from GenBank data.
 
This workshop will be held in the Hostalets the Pierola (Barcelona, Spain) and 
is co-organized by Transmitting Science, Institut Catalá de Paleontologia M. 
Crusafont and the council of Hostalets de Pierola.  
Please feel free to distribute this information between your colleagues if you 
consider it appropriate.

With best regards

Soledad De Esteban-Trivigno, Ph.D.
