I am thrilled to announce that my own project was not funded today. But I have a part in Eva Andersson’s project on crime, schools and children’s life-courses.

Min yngsta har börjat förskoleklass och just lärt sig att läsa. Ikväll ljudade hon B-A-J-S-K-O-R-V när hon tyckte att jag var tråkig.

I should make the move to R, but when to find the time? Sounds like a perfect course for me.
Are you a social scientist that wants to learn R?

Then, you may find my course "R for Social Scientists" very useful!

I designed this course to give social scientists all that is necessary to start using R in their everyday work.

Read about Rosa Parks to my 5.5 yrs old. ”But people couldn’t sit with their friends in the bus??” I know, so strange it was a long time ago, I said.
