We can look back at very interesting presentations and fruitful discussions at the IOPS 2024 Winter Conference at Statistics Netherlands (CBS). Thanks a lot for your active participation! We also would like to thank the local organisers from CBS again for all their efforts to make this IOPS conference a success!

The winner of the Best Oral presentation was Andrés Felipe Peréz Alonso, presenting ‘Mixture Multigroup Structural Equation Modeling: Comparing structural relations across many groups’.
