Conclusions
1. 100 N-body simulations are sufficient to emulate two point statistics to the accuracy of current surveys (future?)
2. Ignoring environment assembly bias effects could bias constraints
\sigma_8
3. Cosmological constraints could be improved dramatically by modelling environment dependent clustering (specially to constrain sum of neutrino masses)
4. But, potentially new systematics?
1. Emulating 2-point statistics (clustering + velocity) with neural networks
2. Potential consequences of ignoring environment based assembly bias
3. Extracting non-Gaussian information from environment dependent clustering
