EBEB 2012 aimed to strengthen the research on Bayesian methods, as well as widen their application in the scientific community. It also provided an environment where researchers could collaborate, present their most recent developments and discuss open problems. The audience consisted of about 20 international, 30 Brazilian professionals and 30 graduate students.
