title: GENIE: estimating demographic history from molecular phylogenies.
abstract: GENIE implements a statistical framework for inferring the demographic history of a population from phylogenies that have been reconstructed from sampled DNA sequences. The methods are based on population genetic models known collectively as coalescent theory.
