Description:

Wondering what Bayesian statistical analysis is and why people use it? Are you curious about methods for incorporating prior knowledge into your analysis or communicating uncertainty with more than confidence intervals? This workshop will introduce you to Bayesian analysis, a powerful way of conducting statistical analyses. You will learn the fundamentals of Bayesian modeling and how to run Bayesian models in R. 

Prerequisites: At the end of the workshop, we will use R to demonstrate Bayesian analysis. Familiarity with R and Tidyverse will be helpful, but not strictly required.
