The annual SRCOS Summer Research Conference is designed to bring together statistical researchers at all levels to learn about current areas of investigation and trends in statistics, including statistics education. The conference format consists of morning, early afternoon, and evening sessions, leaving late afternoons open for informal professional discussions and social interaction. Such interactions are important for the development of new researchers and graduate students, whose participation via contributed poster presentations is especially encouraged.
Conference sponsors include the ASA and NSF (DMS-1157813), both of whom contributed funds towards travel support for graduate students and junior faculty, and the NISS/SAMSI University Affiliates program, which enables attendees from NISS/SAMSI affiliate institutions access to their affiliates reimbursement accounts to defray costs associated with attending this meeting. See the NISS/SAMSI ARA guidelines for more information. We also gratefully acknowledge support from the Department of Biostatistics and Bioinformatics, Emory University.
