====== Introduction to Phylogenetic Combinatorics ======

===== Abstract for the Combinatorics Seminar 2012 November 13 =====

Phylogenetic Combinatorics is a branch of discrete applied mathematics dealing with how to encode genetic data into combinatorial structures such as graphs. I will discuss some methods of encoding and retrieving phylogenetic data from trees.
