My friends from the Department of Statistics, University of Florida, Gainesville, who beautifully organised BayesComp 2020, are running their annual Statistics Winter Workshop next year on Bayesian computational methods. On 17 and 18 January 2025. (Registration fees are $75 and $200 for students and non-students.) With a diverse range of speaker. I wish I could attend!
