Hi Everyone,
The deadline for submissions to StanCon 2018 is approaching fast! Submissions should be sent by September 16, 2017 5:00:00 AM GMT to stanconsubmissions@mc-stan.org.
StanCon’s version of conference proceedings is a collection of contributed talks based on interactive, self-contained notebooks (e.g., knitr, R Markdown, Jupyter, etc.). For example, you might demonstrate a novel modeling technique, or (possibly simplified version of) a novel application, etc. There is no minimum or maximum length and anyone using Stan is welcome to submit a contributed talk.
More details are available on the StanCon submissions web page and examples of accepted submissions from last year are available in our stancon_talks repository on GitHub.
For details about the conference in general see http://mc-stan.org/events/stancon2018/.
