Mark Andrews and I have just launched the web site for our Prior Exposure Bayesian Data Analysis workshop series. This is part of the ESRC Advanced Training Initiative.
Further details are available here.
The first two workshops are available for booking now (though places are filling up quite fast). They are primarily (but not exclusively) aimed at UK social science PhD students (so not just Psychology, but very much also Sociology, Criminology, Politics and other social science disciplines). We hope the workshops will also appeal to early career researchers and others doing quantitative social science research (but with little or no Bayesian experience).
The ESRC is supporting us with bursary funding for travel and subsistence (see web site for details). These are eligible to all UK social science PhD students (not just for those with ESRC funding), but such funded places are limited.
We will run similar workshops next year and if the demand is sufficient we may try and put on additional workshops this year (though maybe I'm being too optimistic!).
Update: As of writing the registration cost for each workshop is £10 (for postgrads) and £20 (or others) - the information is buried in the booking link but we'll try and make that clearer ... The workshops are non-profit so this fee is to cover basic running costs (e.g., lunch etc.) and we will try and keep these low costs for subsequent workshops.
