I was lucky to be invited to a workshop that also featured my dear colleague Jim Bradeen. We both gave a seminar on our work. I then gave a hands-on workshop on conducting population genomic data analysis in R. It was fun working with a very active group of colleagues from South America. I thank Willmer Perez and Jorge Andrade for inviting me.
