A three-part series of workshops in phylogenetic methods was held at the Ohio State University in September and December 2005. The first two were sponsored by the OSU Mathematical Biosciences Institute (MBI), and focused on phylogeography and phylogenetic data, and phylogenetic analysis of large data sets respectively. These workshops highlighted theoretical and practical aspects of phylogeographic inferences using model-based approaches (e.g. likelihood and Bayesian MCMC), as well as current approaches to analyzing large datasets using both parsimony and model-based methods. The third workshop was sponsored by OSU systematics faculty, and was intended to provide practical training in current tools of phylogenetic analysis at the beginning and intermediate levels. The success of these workshops emphasizes the need for greater interaction between those involved in theoretical and empirical phylogenetic research. Further workshops, such as these, would serve to bring a practical understanding of these methods to as broad an audience as possible.
2005年9月和12月，俄亥俄州立大学举办了一个由三部分组成的系统发育方法系列研讨会。前两场由俄亥俄州立大学数学生物科学研究所（MBI）赞助，分别聚焦于系统发育地理学和系统发育数据，以及大数据集的系统发育分析。这些研讨会突出了使用基于模型的方法（如似然法和贝叶斯MCMC）进行系统发育地理学推断的理论和实践方面，以及目前使用简约法和基于模型的方法分析大数据集的方法。第三场研讨会由俄亥俄州立大学的系统分类学教员赞助，旨在为初学者和中级水平的人员提供当前系统发育分析工具的实践培训。这些研讨会的成功强调了理论和实证系统发育研究人员之间加强互动的必要性。进一步举办这样的研讨会将有助于让尽可能广泛的受众切实理解这些方法。
