A method for accurate inference of population size from serially sampled genealogies distorted by selection.

Abstract excerpt

The serial coalescent extends traditional coalescent theory to include genealogies in which not all individuals were sampled at the same time. Inference in this framework is powerful because population size and evolutionary rate may be estimated independently. However, when the sequences in question are affected by selection acting at many sites, the genealogies may differ significantly from their neutral...
