Dear Students,
We are thrilled to welcoming you soon in Erlangen.
Our 3-week workshop aims to introduce graduate students to a range of analytical methods that are foundational to or at the cutting edge of paleobiological
research. Topics, taught by rotating expert instructors, will include probability theory, maximum likelihood and Bayesian methods, resampling techniques, correlation and regression,
multivariate statistics, methods of measuring biodiversity, morphometrics, phylogenetic methods, spatial and time-series analyses and other related topics. The workshop will also
provide practical hands-on training in statistical programming and data analysis and visualization in R.
The 2023 edition of the workshop is hosted by the University of Erlangen-Nuremberg, Erlangen, Germany, Monday August 21 thru Friday September 8, 2023. Application deadline is Sunday February 26, 2023.
