Information

The PGRN analysis workshop has had enormous success over the past several years. Participation has been between 50-100 individuals from 10-13 PGRN sites and several affiliate members. The goal is to submit a collaborative manuscript summarizing the important topics of the meeting. P-STAR will organize the collection of information and writing of this yearly manuscript.

P-STAR

A network resource for coordination of statistical analysis and methods development in the PGRN.
