Stan is having its first conference in January! Registration will open at the end of September.
Early registration (on or before December 20, 2016):
- Student: $50
- Academic: $100
- Industry: $200
This will include coffee, lunch, and some swag.
Late Registration (December 21, 2016 and on):
- Student: $75
- Academic: $150
- Industry: $300
This will include coffee and lunch. Probably won't get swag.
Contributed talks:We're looking for contributed talks. We will start accepting submissions at the end of September.
The contributed talks at StanCon will be based on interactive, self-contained notebooks, such as knitr or Jupyter, that will also take the place of proceedings. For example, you might demonstrate a novel modeling technique or a simplified version of a novel application. Each submission should include the notebook and separate files containing the Stan program, data, initializations if used, and a permissive license for everything such as CC BY 4.0.
