μTOSS 2010 Berlin - Multiple Comparisons from Theory to Practice

Under the scope of the "Harvest" programme of the PASCAL2 European Network of Excellence , Gilles Blanchard, Thorsten Dickhaus and Klaus-Robert Müller, together with five participants from three countries, will carry out a software project for multiple testing at the Berlin Institute of Technology from January 18th to February 12th, 2010.

As a round-off of the project, the workshop " µTOSS 2010 Berlin -  Multiple comparisons from theory to practice " will take place in collaboration with the Bernstein Focus Neurotechnology - Berlin on February 15th and February 16th, 2010. 

The workshop shall serve two purposes. On the one hand, we will have invited speakers who present talks on multiple testing methodology and practice in a tutorial style for an audience that is familiar with basic concepts of statistical testing, but has no particular expertise in MCPs. Directly after such a theoretical talk, we will present how the things which have just been presented can be realized in our new software (this practical presentation will be done by one of the coding team members).   In a separate time slot, contributed posters will be presented.
