An exciting last day of the workshop where @joel_l_pick shows the students how to use the squid-simulation tool to investigate how study design decisions affect parameters estimated in mixed model

Today our students worked on random intercept and random slopes models with @DochtermannLab @rose_odea, @DingemanseLab and Dave Westneat. Exciting evening lecture by @joel_l_pick, focusing on predicting evolution in the wild

Very interesting account @joel_l_pick @IebJarrod on how prevalent phenotypic skew can be (including meta-analysis on avian tarsus length) decomposition of the skew shows it is of env. rather than genetic origin yet may often lead to h² overestimation nature.com/articles/s41559-0…

So far, our teaching focused on: 1.Building an equation of variance 2.Understanding fixed effect (interactions) 3.Using mixed models to understand biology 4.Random intercept and random slope models Halfway the workshop now, so time to stretch our legs
