Dear colleagues,
Registration is open for Transmitting Science course "Modelling and
Analysing Multivariate Traits Evolution using R"- 4th edition.
This course only accepts 16 participants, acceptance on "first come,
first served" basis.
Dates and schedule: Online live sessions on May 12th, 14th, 16th, 19th,
and 21st, 2025; from 14:00 to 10:00 to 12:30 and from 13:00 to 15:00
(Madrid time zone).
Instructor: Dr. Julien Clavel [1] (NNRS, France), author of the package
mvMORPH [2] (together with Aaron King and Emmanuel Paradis).
This course is addressed to any researcher studying phylogenetic
comparative methods using multivariate data.
For all the information, please check the course webpage:

Course overview:
In this workshop students will be introduced to multivariate
phylogenetic comparative methods with the mvMORPH R package.
The mvMORPH package contains tools for modelling the evolution of
correlated continuous traits (e.g. morphometric measurement, geometric
morphometric datasets, life history traits, gene expression data, etc.)
on phylogenetic trees [ with either fossil species, extant species or
both] as well as statistical tools such as multivariate generalized
least squares (GLS) linear models -e.g. multivariate regression, MANOVA,
MANCOVA - for studying comparative datasets.
In this course, students will be first introduced to some theory with
illustrative examples (both from simulated data as well as students' own
datasets) and will learn how to interpret the models, their parameters,
as well as how to assess their reliability.
If you have any questions do not hesitate to contact the course

With best regards
Sole
