As part of its policy of training young mathematicians and in order to bring the basic sciences closer to the realities of development, the Mathematics Department of the University of Lomé and the International Center for Pure and Applied Mathematics (CIMPA) organized September 3 to 14, 2018 at the University of Lome, a Research School on the theme: "Lifetime Statistics and Spatial Statistics: Applications to therapeutic trials, industrial reliability, epidemiology and climate change".
The aim of this research school was to present modern statistical methods for the treatment and analysis of lifespans. Particular emphasis has been placed on spatial modeling and extremes modeling for this type of data. The fields of application of these methods are many and varied: medicine, industry, meteorology, hydrology, epidemiology and public health, agronomy and climate change. This school registered a total of 51 participants including 42 participants from abroad.
