<p class="MsoNormal">Dear all,</p>
<p>registration is now open for the next Statistical Rethinking course (starting 10 January 2025).</p>

<p><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; font-family: 'Segoe UI',sans-serif; color: #1f2328; background: white;">This course teaches data analysis, but it focuses on scientific models. The unfortunate truth about data is that nothing much can be done with it, <br>until we say what caused it. We will prioritize conceptual, causal models and precise questions about those models. We will use Bayesian data <br>analysis to connect scientific models to evidence. And we will learn powerful computational tools for coping with high-dimension, imperfect data<br>of the kind that biologists and social scientists face.</span></p>
<p>This year, the number of participants is limited to 32 people.</p>
<p>Registration and further details are available <a href="https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSda8tewRXg6tGN7DtT8IRk8Rl4beSHawsG8L6lKnGxDzO8L-Q/viewform"> here</a>.</p>
