Demographic inference is a field of research that involves using statistical methods and computational tools to estimate demographic parameters, such as population size, growth rate, and migration patterns, based on genetic data. This field is particularly relevant in the study of evolutionary biology, anthropology, and conservation biology, as it can provide valuable insights into the histories and dynamics of populations. Researchers in this area may use various genetic data sources, such as DNA sequences or SNP data, to infer demographic processes and patterns. By analyzing these data, researchers can gain a better understanding of how populations have evolved and been shaped by factors such as genetic drift, migration, and natural selection.
