An introduction to mixed models in R

We are delighted to be hosting Athanasia "Mo" Mowinckel - a co-organiser of the R-Ladies Oslo chapter and heavily involved in R-Ladies Global! Mo does brain research at the University of Oslo where she is an advanced user of R and technology at large. Recently she wrote a little package to help other academics overcome the challenges (and trauma) of uploading CRAN and BioConductor packages to TSD (Service for Sensitive Data). Thank you for that Mo!

In this talk, she will showcase some of the methods she uses and develops. The methods have been applied to longitudinal brain measurements, however mixed models have a variety of applications in economics, social sciences, genetics and even animal husbandry.

Welcome Mo! Welcome everyone!
