I was speaking about the epinowcast package, ecosystem, and community with a little bit of a pitch for modelling in Julia at the end.

If any of this work takes your interest this PhD on delay estimation may interest you.

The new epidist release just dropped which includes support for the marginal model as well as lots of other goodies

TLDRP: its 20-lots faster depending on number of stratifications in the data and not approximate.

It's rare to have so many PhD studentships open at the same time that are fully funded at the project level - do apply if any of these strike your interest (unfortunately, UK home fee eligible candidates only). I'll describe the 3 projects that involve me / @epiforecasts.io in a bit more detail.

Excited to share that today was my first day as an Assistant Professor at LSHTM @lshtm.bsky.social working in the @epiforecasts.bsky.social group! Looking forward to working with so many talented people, acquainting to London life, and maybe actually posting some content on here 🇬🇧☔️
