Call for Papers: "Finding Thetas in Europe" - Conference on Applied
Bayesian Statistics and MCMC Methods in the Social Sciences, 08-09 April
2010, University of Mannheim
We are pleased to announce the conference "Finding Thetas in Europe -
Applied Bayesian Statistics and MCMC Methods in the Social Sciences" at
the University of Mannheim, Germany, from 8th to 9th April 2010. This
interdisciplinary conference is organized by young scholars from the
University of Cologne and the University of Mannheim. It intends to
gather young social scientists from Europe who apply Bayesian and MCMC
methods in their research.
We aim to provide a platform for exchanging expertise on Bayesian
methods and to build up a network for European scholars who share common
methodological interests.
The conference is based on a workshop-format. Each participant has a 30
minute slot available at his/her disposal to present and discuss his/
her research paper. This provides the framework for constructive
feedback in a friendly and inspiring atmosphere. *Please note that we do
not expect you to submit polished papers, but we really welcome work in
progress!*
*Please register by 28th February 2010 at bayes(at)uni-mannheim.de.* The
participation fee is 15 Euros for workshop materials and snacks. Funding
for accommodation can be provided upon approval of a pending grant
application.

We hope to welcome you all in Mannheim in spring 2010!
Best, the Bayes Conference Team
