The Richard Boys lecture recognises outstanding research contributions in applied, methodological and computational aspects of Bayesian statistics. Named after Richard James Boys (1960-2019), this annual lecture celebrates Richard’s major contribution to the statistical community in the North East.
This talk is part of a larger workshop hosted by Newcastle University on the 20th June 2022 to celebrate the life and work of Professor Richard Boys, who was a huge presence within the School of Mathematics, Statistics and Physics until his untimely death in March 2019. More details can be found
