Title: R Bayesian Evidence Synthesis Tools
Description: Tool-set to support Bayesian evidence synthesis.  This
    includes meta-analysis, (robust) prior derivation from historical
    data, operating characteristics and analysis (1 and 2 sample
    cases). Please refer to Weber et al. (2021) <doi:10.18637/jss.v100.i19>
    for details on applying this package while Neuenschwander et al. (2010)
    <doi:10.1177/1740774509356002> and Schmidli et al. (2014)
    <doi:10.1111/biom.12242> explain details on the methodology.
