Participants
Each bar is one year, stacked by workshop. Genomics ran every January; Phylogenomics and Population Genomics alternated alongside it. No workshops ran in 2021 due to COVID-19.
2011 is excluded: three genomics editions ran that year, in Český Krumlov (as the Workshop on Comparative Genomics), Fort Collins, and at the Smithsonian, and their combined participant count is not comparable to later single editions.
Geographic reach
The workshops have consistently drawn participants from across the world. At its widest, 33 countries were represented among the participants in a single year.
Sessions
Practicals outnumber lectures across all editions. Every concept taught in a lecture is reinforced the same day at a terminal.
Counts across all editions of the four workshops, 2008–2026.
Curriculum
The most-taught lecture topics in each workshop, ranked by how often they recurred. Merged into one list, the larger Genomics curriculum buries the others, so here each stands on its own.
Faculty
74 of 190 faculty have taught at more than one edition. The number who have returned year after year is what gives the workshop its continuity.
