Information
Aims, contents and method of the course
Morphometrics is the statistical analysis of biological forms. It is widely applied in zoological, anthropological, and medical research. In this project practicum we collect and analyze morphometric data to address zoological and anthropological research questions. The basics of classical morphometrics, geometric morphometrics, and multivariate statistics will be taught within a biological context.
