NIMBLE is a system built in R, that allows you to build and analyze statistical models.
It is specifically relevant to hierarchical models and computationally-intensive methods and can aid in efficiency by reducing and simplifying your work.
The course aims to provide a better understanding of how to use and customize NIMBLE's statistical algorithms.
The target audience are researchers, master and PhD students in the area of statistics, mathematics, health, ecology, biology or other related fields. No previous NIMBLE experience is required, but the workshop will assume some familiarity with hierarchical models, Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC), and R.
