Melanie Colón Posted November 8, 2017 Share Posted November 8, 2017 Geometric Morphometrics Using R (GMMR01)https://www.prstatistics.com/course/geometric-morphometrics-using-r-gmmr01/This course is being delivered by Prof. Dean Adams, Prof. Michael Collyerand Dr. Antigoni Kaliontzopoulou This course will run from 19th – 23rd February 2018 at Margam DiscoveryCentre, Wales, UK. The field of geometric morphometrics (GM) is concerned with thequantification and analysis of patterns of shape variation, and itscovariation with other variables. Over the past several decades theseapproaches have become a mainstay in the field of ecology, evolutionarybiology, and anthropology, and a panoply of analytical tools for addressingspecific biological hypotheses concerning shape have been developed. Thegoal of this is to provide participants with a working knowledge of thetheory of geometric morphometrics, as well as practical training in theapplication of these methods. The course is organized in both theoretical and practical sessions. Thetheoretical sessions will provide a comprehensive introduction to themethods of landmark-based geometric morphometrics, which aims at providingthe participants with a solid theoretical background for understanding theprocedures used in shape data analysis. Practical sessions will includeworked examples, giving the participants the opportunity to gain hands-onexperience in the treatment of shape data using the R package geomorph.These sessions focus on the generation of shape variables from primarylandmark data, the statistical treatment of shape variation with respect tobiological hypotheses, and the visualization of patterns of shape variationand of the shapes themselves for interpretation of statistical findings,using the R language for statistical programming. While practice datasetswill be available, it is strongly recommended that participants come withtheir own datasets. Note: Because this is a geometric morphometrics workshop in R, it isrequired that participants have some working knowledge in R. The practicalsessions of the course will focus on GM-based analyses, and not basic Ruser-interfacing. It is therefore strongly recommended that participantsrefresh their R skills prior to attending the workshop. Course Programme Sunday 5th Meet at Millport field centre at approximately 18:30.
