Dear colleagues, Registration is open for the course *Geometric Morphometrics for Beginners*. This course will be held live online (synchronous). Max 18 participants. Dates: August 8th-12th, 2022 from 15:00 to 17:00 and 17:30 to 20:00 (Madrid time zone).
*Instructor:* Dr. Jesús Marugán-Lobón (Universidad Autónoma de Madrid, España) *COURSE OVERVIEW* The world around us is a space-time mosaic where forms evolve, constantly change and interact with each other. Geometric morphometry is a digital *morphological analysis tool* that allows addressing biological key questions, such as shape transformation (variation) and the result of its interaction (covariation) with the physical environment, with an unprecedented analytical resolution. In this course, these concepts will be explained in a simple and practical way. To do this, basic aspects such as the biological and geometric concept of *landmark and semi-landmark* configurations will be reviewed, the available comparative methodologies will be compared, and basic multivariate statistical methods will be put into practice that allow addressing biological problems at any scale of complexity, making special emphasis on visualization and interpretation of form variation. This course is introductory, and is aimed at advanced degree students and graduates of all areas related to the biological sciences.
