We are happy to announce the sixth edition of the València International Bayesian Summer School (VIBASS 6) that will take place from 10 to 14 July 2023 in València (Spain). VIBASS 6 is a five-day summer school that offers an opportunity to be introduced into Bayesian learning without previous knowledge in the subject. The five days of VIBASS 6 are organised in three parts:

1) Monday 10 and Tuesday 11 include a basic course on Bayesian learning (approx 12 hours), with conceptual sessions and practical sessions with R packages. It would be advisable that participants bring their laptops for the practical sessions.

2) Wednesday 12 and Thursday 13 is dedicated to an issue of current interest in Bayesian research. This edition is dedicated to Bayesian capture-recapture inference with hidden Markov models. This course is provided Dr. Olivier Gimenez (Centre d’Écologie Fonctionnelle & Évolutive, Montpellier, France).

3) Friday 14 is the last day of the school. It is devoted to the Sixth VIBASS Workshop. It includes two plenary sessions, with invited speakers Prof. Concepción Ausín (Universidad Carlos III de Madrid, Spain) and Prof. Duncan Lee (University of Glasgow, Scotland). Attendants to the school are encouraged to present their research in an informal brainstorming.
