and advanced techniques in biostatistics, they will perform exercises with data
from ecological experiments. Specifically, the following topics will be
introduced: linear, Poisson, and Binomial regression; AIC, BIC, model
selection, and model averaging; random effects and mixed effects models;
correlation structure (e.g., time series, spatial, phylogeny). This course is
