Dear colleagues,
Registration is open for Transmitting Science course “Modelling and Analysing Multivariate Traits Evolution using mvMORPH”, November 9th-13th, 2020. This course will be run Online (Live) Instructors: Dr. Julien Clavel (NNRS, France) Course overview In this workshop students will be introduced to multivariate phylogenetic comparative methods with the *mvMORPH R package*. The mvMORPH package contains tools for modelling the *evolution of correlated continuous traits* (e.g. morphometric measurement, geometric morphometric datasets, life history traits, gene expression data, etc.) on phylogenetic trees [ with either fossil species, extant species or both] as well as statistical tools such as multivariate generalized least squares (GLS) linear models -e.g. *multivariate regression*, *MANOVA*, *MANCOVA* – for studying comparative datasets. In this course, students will be first introduced to some theory with illustrative examples (both from simulated data as well as students’ own datasets) and will learn how to interpret the models, their parameters, as well as how to assess their reliability.
