Methods to infer phylodynamic patterns and transmission chains

Methods to infer phylodynamic patterns and transmission chains from genetic data will be implemented in a Bayesian statistical software (BEAST: http://beast.community). This is a cross-platform program for Bayesian analysis of molecular sequences using Markov chain Monte Carlo sampling. The code will be made available at a publically accessible repository (https://github.com/beast-dev/beast-mcmc) and this will be accompanied by public releases of the software.
