Dear Readers, Like you, I’m particular about what I read. It must be entertaining. This month, I’d like to introduce you to Dr. AnnMaria De Mars, Senior Statistics Consultant at the University of Southern California. She writes a fascinating blog for inquisitive people. Incidentally, it includes research and tips for statisticians and users of SAS® Enterprise Guide®. For a look into her personality, you have to read this post.
I first found De Mars through Twitter, so that’s where I decided to ask if I could introduce you. She suggested pointing you to this post: Death is Different: More on Event History Models. It’s a “painless introduction to extremely advanced models.” Right up your alley!
