Participants in this workshop are welcome to take part also in the last
day (April 17) of the parallel workshop on composite likelihood methods
( http://go.warwick.ac.uk/complik2008 ), also held at Warwick. The two
workshops will also combine to organise a single poster session and
social event.

Bursaries for PhD students and researchers within three years of the PhD
will be made available to support participation in the workshop. See the
