1. Standard statistical tests can find false-positive “nonsense correlations” between slowly drifting but unrelated variables. A preprint with Kevin Miller describes one approach to this problem: conditional randomization tests. arxiv.org/abs/2311.03554

Today we have another method seminar with excellent talks from Dr Rebecca Hughes , Circadian_Josh and Dr Andreea D. Pantiru ! Come in and learn about new techniques!

Great PhD opportunity in my lab for anyone with an interest in light, chronobiology and vision. Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research DTP with co-PIs Nina Milosavljevic and Hema tinyurl.com/29tbpvmf

Exciting PhD opportunity in collaboration with Robert Lucas focusing on gene therapy for vision restoration funded by #FightforSight, please share with those who may be interested. findaphd.com/phds/project/e…
