Although he was part of all our team meetings online we felt it was much needed to have him visit Vienna and the @meduniwien.ac.at to work with us and deliver some hands-on training as well.

Esteban worked on cleaning the data from the #CANCERLESS project and also created a detailed data catalogue that will definitely support further analyses. He also did a very interesting analysis utilizing the Cumulative Link Mixed Model (#clmm).
