Dear researchers at the interface between ecology and statistics, The abstract submission deadline has been extended to next Monday, December 9 2019, for the International Statistical Ecology Conference (ISEC2020, June 22-26, 2020, Sydney Australia). So you need to get cracking! Bursaries are available to presenters from developing countries. Registration is also open.
Plenary speakers: - Christl Donnelly (Imperial College, London) - David Borchers (St Andrews) - Di Cook (Monash) - Kiona Ogle (Northern Arizona) - Mark Bravington (CSIRO) Invited sessions on: - Reproducible Science with Fiona Fidler (Melbourne), Shinichi Nakagawa (UNSW Sydney) - Methods for high throughput community data with Doug Yu (East Anglia) ISEC2020 is a family-friendly event - we plan to organise child care at the conference venue for anyone travelling with young children. The first day of the conference is a Skills Showcase, with 90-minute introductory tutorials on deep learning, high-dimensional data visualisation, acoustics, spatial capture-recapture, multivariate analysis, hidden Markov models, point processes, and more. We have several spots left in our Skills Showcase program - send us your ideas! Do you want to do some science while at the conference? We plan to organise lunchtime round-table discussions on topical issues, where each table takes a topic and works towards a plan for a paper they could write to address it. Outcomes will be reported to delegates in a plenary session, and paper plans will be submitted to Methods in Ecology and Evolution as an ISEC2020 Special Issue proposal. Send us your ideas for discussion topics at mailto:isec2...@unsw.edu.au.
