Hi @junxu2018, there’s definitely not (yet) as much as we would like, but there’s still quite a lot of good stuff you can find searching around online. For example:

- [Search results for survival on the Stan Forums on Discourse](http://discourse.mc-stan.org/search?context=topic&context_id=4146&expanded=true&q=Survival&skip_context=true) for example these recent topics ([1](http://discourse.mc-stan.org/t/survival-models-in-rstanarm/3998), [2](http://discourse.mc-stan.org/t/using-stan-jm-for-parametric-proportional-hazards-regression-only/3931/)), which are broader than their titles suggest.

- [Search results for survival on old stan-users google group](https://groups.google.com/forum/m/#!searchin/stan-users/survival)

- [https://github.com/hammerlab/survivalstan](https://github.com/hammerlab/survivalstan) (@jackinovik and hammerlab)

- [https://github.com/jburos/biostan-examples/blob/master/applied-survival-model.Rmd](https://github.com/jburos/biostan-examples/blob/master/applied-survival-model.Rmd) (@jackinovik)

I’m probably missing some good ones.
