This document will help you to prepare for the training school on Bayesian methods being held in Larissa, Greece, 22 - 24 April 2024. The training school involves both introductory didactic teaching and hands-on practical sessions on Bayesian methods for true prevalence estimation & diagnostic test evaluation. The following core topics will be covered: - Bayesian Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) - Apparent & true prevalence estimation - Test evaluation without cut-offs - Test evaluation with Hui-Walter models Primary learning objectives of the school are that participants (i) become familiar with methods for true prevalence estimation and diagnostic test evaluation (ii) understand the basic principles of MCMC and where Bayesian Latent class models can be applied.

The figure was created using data from the 1974 Motor Trend US magazine, that comprises fuel consumption and 10 aspects of automobile design and performance for 32 automobiles (1973–74 models). Here the graph displays the relationship between miles per gallon, weight (1000lbs), number of cylinders and gross horsepower of each car included in the dataset.
