Survival analysis applied to animal breeding and epidemiology

I was out of the office for a while, so there has been no posts. I attended short course by Vincent Ducrocq on Survival analysis applied to animal breeding and epidemiology. The course was really great! We had lectures in morning and practicals after lunch. We have used his program called Survival Kit, written in FORTRAN 77. It is a nice program and can be used on big datasets and last but not least available for free at link. Now we have the know how to start the analyses of longevity in our farm animals.
