Dear Colleagues and Friends,
I would like to draw your attention to the call for applications to the two following summer schools which will be held in the lovely medieval town of Bertinoro (Italy) during the third and fourth week of June, 2009:
Summer School in Longitudinal Network Data Analysis using SIENA, Bertinoro, June 15-19, 2009 A 5-days course on the application ofￜ stochastic, actor-based modeling principles and techniques to the analysis of longitudinal data on complete networks using the tools implemented in the SIENA software. The main focus is on the analysis of network evolution processes and processes of co-evolution between social networks and changeable actor attributes. The course is taught by Prof. Christian Steglich (University of Groningen), a leading authority on the statistical analysis of longitudinal networks and one of the key contributors to the development of SIENA.
ￜ
Summer School in Event History & Survival Analysis using STATA, Bertinoro, June 22-26, 2009 Taught by Prof. Paul Allison (University of Pennsylvania), one of the world's leading authorities in this field, this is an applications-oriented course on statistical methods for the analysis of longitudinal data on the occurrence of events, such as births, deaths, marriages, divorces, arrests, promotions, residential moves, innovations, bankruptcies, revolutions, etc. Topics will include life tables, Kaplan-Meier estimation, accelerated failure-time models, hazard models, censoring, maximum likelihood estimation, Cox regression models, partial likelihood, time-dependent covariates, competing risks, repeated events, unobserved heterogeneity, discrete-time methods.
The Schools, which are organized by the Management Departments of the University of Bologna & Forlￜ, are open for application to highly motivated PhD students/post docs/faculty members from around the world. Program and application details can be found at the following links:
