Workshop on Statistical Package BreedR

Several partners of Trees4Furure FP7 project (http://www.trees4future.eu/) plan to organize a training workshop on the use of the statistical package BreedR (https://github.com/famuvie/breedR).

This package is intended for quantitative genetic analyses with specific modules for spatial statistics, GxE and competition models among others features.

The course will comprise mainly training exercises with real forest genetics data and some short highlights on theory.

We intend a 3 to 4 days, with one day specifically for analysis of plasticity traits.

We picked a nice mountain spot to hold the event (Jaca, in the Spanish Pyrenees, residence web-page in Spanish http://www.unizar.es/resijaca/html/inicio.php), with intended dates the week starting on the 29th of June.

We are doing our best to keep accommodation costs as reasonable as possible.

Please send an email to lsanchezrod@orleans.inra.fr as soon as possible indicating your interest and availability

And do not hesitate to spread the word to those potentially interested in your entourage!
