International Statistical Ecology Conference in Seattle

I attended the International Statistical Ecology Conference in Seattle. I don’t go often to conferences, but I do my best not to miss that one.

This year, clearly, hidden Markov models (HMM) were on the lips of everyone. Well, it was cool to realize that I wasn’t too “has been” by giving a 1-day workshop on fitting occupancy models with HMM and program E-SURGE developed in our team.

I also gave a talk on the use of PCA to deal with many correlated covariated in capture-recapture models.

I also co-authored a talk that Ian Renner (see below) gave on combining sources of information on species distribution.

Evolutionary biology & comparative genomics

I’m an associate professor scientist working at the interface of animal ecology, statistical modeling and social sciences.
