Dear colleagues, I am excited to announce the 11th edition of the course "Geometric Morphometrics in R" (live online). Dates: Online live sessions on July 28th, 29th, 30th, 31st, and August 1st, 4th, 5th, 2025. Daily schedule: from 12:00 to 17:00 (Madrid time zone). Course webpage: https://www.transmittingscience.com/courses/geometric-morphometrics/geometric-morphometrics-r/ Instructor: Dr. Julien Claude, author of the book "Morphometrics with R [1]" (Institut des Sciences de l'�volution de Montpellier, France). Course Overview Concepts in geometric morphometrics will be taught using a series of original data sets and working in R for solving a series of tasks. The course will start with an introduction to R and will rapidly go into shape analysis with measurements, landmark data and outlines. The participants are welcome to bring their own data and problems so that we may find R solutions. Geometric morphometrics is important in the study of evolutionary biology because it provides a powerful and precise way to quantify and analyze shape variation among organisms. Unlike traditional morphometric methods, geometric morphometrics retains the spatial relationships among landmarks, allowing researchers to visualize shape changes and compare morphological differences in a statistically rigorous manner. This helps in understanding patterns of evolutionary change, adaptation, and developmental processes, as well as in reconstructing the evolutionary relationships between species based on their morphological traits.
