published in PNAS!

The paper “Lack of confidence in approximate Bayesian computation model choice“, with  Jean-Marie Cornuet, Jean-Michel Marin, and Natesh S. Pillai, has now appeared in the Early Edition of PNAS! It is in Open Access, so fully accessible to everyone. Thanks to the referees and to the PNAS editor, Steve Fienberg, for their support. A very fitting ending for a paper started around a (fake) log-fire in Park City! (And my very first paper in PNAS!)
