Course overview: In this five day course, we provide an introduction to eco-phylogenetics and comparative analyses using R. We begin by providing an overview on the use of phylogenies as a tool for evolutionary biologists and modern techniques to deal with large phylogenies and to incorporate phylogenetic uncertainty in the analyses (day 1). We then cover some of the most relevant eco-phylogenetic analyses and provide examples from the community to themacro-ecological scale (day 2-3). Finally, we introduce a diversity of classic and modern…

ONLINE COURSE – Bayesian Data Analysis (BADA01) This course will be delivered live
Bayesian methods are now increasingly widely in data analysis across most scientific research fields. Given that Bayesian methods differ conceptually and theoretically from their classical statistical counterparts that are traditionally taught in statistics courses, many researchers do not have opportunities to learn the fundamentals of Bayesian methods, which makes using Bayesian data analysis in practice more challenging. The aim of this course is to provide a solid introduction to Bayesian methods, both theoretically and practically. We will begin by teaching…
