Adam Gehr of DePaul University’s Finance Department had organized a panel
session about R in Finance at the Midwest Finance Association’s 58th Annual
Meeting which is happening this week here in Chicago.
I just posted my slides on my presentations
page. The slides give a brief overview of R, the CRAN network and the by now over 1600

course beat the drum for our upcoming
R/Finance conference that will take place here in Chicago at the end of
next month.
