Advancing in statistical modelling for evolutionary biologists and
ecologists using R (ADVR08)

https://www.prstatistics.com/course/advancing-statistical-modelling-using-r-advr08/

This course will be delivered by Dr. Luc Bussiere from the 21st 25th
January 2019 in Glasgow City Centre
Course Overview:
This course will provide an introduction to working with real-life data
typical of those encountered in the field of evolutionary biology and
ecology. The course will be delivered by Dr. Luc Bussiere, Dr. Tom Houslay
and Dr. Ane Timenes Laugen who are all practicing academics in the field of
evolutionary biology.  This five day course will consist of series of
modules (each lasting roughly half a day) covering model selection and
simplification, generalised linear models, mixed effects models,  and
non-linear models. Along the way you will gain in depth experience in data
‘wrangling’, data and model visualisation and plotting, as well as
exploring and understanding model diagnostics.
Classes will comprises of a mixture of lectures and practicals designed to
either build required skills for future modules or to perform a family of
analyses that is frequently encountered in the biological literature.
Course programme
Monday 21st – Classes from 09:30 to 17:30
Course introduction; techniques for data manipulation, aggregation, and
visualisation; introduction to linear regression. Packages: {tidyr},
{dplyr}, {ggplot2}
Tuesday 22nd – Classes from 09:30 to 17:30
Linear models (diagnostics, collinearity, scaling, plotting fitted values);
fitting and interpreting interaction terms; model selection and
simplification; general linear models and ANCOVA.
Packages: {stats}, {car}
Wednesday 23rd – Classes from 09:30 to 17:30
Generalized linear models (logistic and Poisson regression); predicting
using model objects and visualizing model fits. Packages: {broom},
{visreg}, {ggplot2}
Thursday 24th – Classes from 09:30 to 17:30
Mixed effects models in theory and practice; visualising fixed and random
effects.
Packages: {lme4}, {broom}, {ggplot2}, {sjPlot}
Friday 25th – Classes from 09:30 to 16:00
Fitting nonlinear functions (polynomial & mechanistic models); brief
introduction to more advanced topics & combining methods (e.g., generalised
linear mixed effects, nonlinear mixed effects, and zero-inflated and
zero-altered models). Packages: {nlsTools}
