Dear all,

We are excited to announce our upcoming online course on Generalized Linear Mixed Models in R, taking place from October 14-18.

Course Highlights:

• Dates: October 14-18, 2024

• Format: Online, to foster international participation

• Focus: Specification, interpretation, and validation of linear and generalized linear mixed models using R

• Tools: Emphasis on the lme4 and glmmTMB packages

• Course website: https://www.physalia-courses.org/courses-workshops/glmms-in-r/

Who Should Attend:

Graduate students and researchers experienced with generalized linear regression models in R who want to extend their knowledge to include random effects, correlation structures, and variance models.

Learning Outcomes:

1. Deepen your understanding of regression concepts.
2. Master the components of the GLMM framework.
3. Choose and validate appropriate model structures.
4. Interpret and visualize fitted GLMMs.
5. Check model assumptions using R packages effects and DHARMa.

The course includes lectures, discussions, Q&A, and practical exercises via Slack and Zoom.
