A group of our PhD students taking a break from their weekly reading group/chat. Interested to join them for a PhD in Stats? We are a vibrant community in a friendly environment. See details at https://t.co/VEWa3MYpI5 We accept UK and overseas students. Scholarships available.
Many congratulations to my fantastic PhD student @CallisteFJ who today submitted his thesis on "GPU-accelerated computational statistics in ecology". Way to go, Cal!
PhD📢: Fully-funded studentship @univofstandrews "Estimating spatial and temporal patterns in density of harbour porpoises in the North Sea using datasets from passive acoustic ocean observation networks with data flow to EU Digital Twin Ocean database" https://t.co/6xeZr4zraV
Curious about the use of GPU computing for massively faster fitting of statistical models (especially state-space models)? Nice paper by my fabulous PhD student Cal Fagard-Jenkin, with some "getting started" components. Paper: https://t.co/7CFIlcPVsw Code https://t.co/ZfeFeBGHQ8
Please join our Stats Seminar 2-3pm Wed, Jan-24 to hear our own @FergusJChadwick (University of St Andrews) on "Do identification guides hold the key to species misclassification by citizen scientists?". DM @giominas or email [email protected] your affiliation to join.
The pipes are calling! We are advertising two lectureships in statistics: https://t.co/3dEzNhoYn8 Teaching-and-research or teaching-focussed. Lovely living and working environment, friendly and collaborative group, excellent students. #statsjobs#academicjobs
Very well deserved recognition to one of our research groups, in inter-disciplinary partnership with colleagues at @SchoolofBiology and @StAndrewsCS. Well done to everyone @CREEM_cake!
Now in Annals of Applied Statistics: "Continuous-time modelling of behavioural responses in animal movement"
We use stochastic differential equations to model baseline behaviour, and detect behaviour change after animals are exposed to human disturbance

Fantastic to see that Jane Wadsworth now has an entry on the MacTutor history of maths website. An inspirational medical statistician who studied here in St Andrews. @StA_Maths_Stats https://t.co/2I2i9licPK
It has been our pleasure today to welcome Prof Colin Torney @UofGMaths_Stats to give the JJ Valletta memorial lecture "From machine learning to migration".
