Next Steps in Python: Bayesian Inference in STAN

Wednesday, April 10, 2024 | 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM CT
Online

Next Steps in Python Workshop Series is a seven-part series covering intermediate Python skills, tips, and tricks guaranteed to make your coding life easier. You do not need to attend each session to participate - there is a new lesson each week. 

Each one-hour session meets via Zoom on Wednesdays at noon, CDT.  

Bayesian Inference in STAN 
In this tutorial, we will walk through the basics of STAN- an open-source software for Bayesian inference. We will build a simple linear regression model in STAN and lightly discuss the advantages of using a Bayesian framework. We will be using STAN with Python, but STAN allows interfacing with R, MATLAB, Julia, Stata, and more. 

Prerequisites: Participants should be familiar with Python at an introductory level.
