Date: 17 to 21 March 2025
Location: FRB-CESAB, 5 rue de l’École de Médecine, 34000 Montpellier

The CESAB – Centre for Biodiversity Synthesis and Analysis – and the GDR TheoMoDive organize the 4th edition of the training course « Theory-driven Analysis of Ecological Data ».

The objective of this five-day course is to train young researchers in building and analyzing mathematical models that will help them better understand ecological data. By contrast with purely statistical models, this course emphasizes a process-driven approach based on ecological theory. The course covers a general introduction to ecological modeling and thematic sessions focused on three topics of interest (time series, spatial data, interaction networks). Each topic is explored through mathematical models as well as inferential and predictive approaches, with a mix of courses and practical.

The training course, in English, will take place from the 17th to the 21st of March 2025 in the CESAB premises in Montpellier. The price is 250 € for the week, including lunch. Travel, accommodation and evening meals are at the expense of the participants.
