This proposal requests funds to support travel expenses of approximately 25 U.S. scientists, approximately ten participants who have an official capacity such as organizers and invited speakers and approximately fifteen young investigators (including women and minorities), to attend the 17th International Biometric Conference. The meeting will be held August 8-12, 1994 in Hamilton, Ontario. The strength of the meetings lies in the broad international participation of statisticians, biologists and mathematicians interested in quantitative and statistical aspects of biology, genetics, epidemiology, pharmacology, medicine, public health and other fields. Topics to be discussed on statistical topics directly related to these issues include quality management, mixture distributions, neural networks, genetics, repeated measures and longitudinal data analyses, spatial models and climatic change in fisheries, bioassay calibration, epidemics, DNA and protein sequences, Gibbs sampling and resampling computer intensive methods, spatial and temporal environmental modelling, frailty models, cancer models and ecological impact analysis; all of which have direct bearing on solutions to the major concerns of today including ecology and the environment, AIDS, cancer and heart disease, plant science epidemiology, agriculture, forestry, etc. In addition, discussions on fundamental statistical issues of repeated measures, structural inference, image processing and causal inference all have direct application to current health related and agricultural sciences. It is anticipated that the Conference, which is the major international meeting of biostatisticians and biometricians throughout the world will be attended by 500 or more scientists from the international community.

The strength of the meetings lies in the broad international participation of statisticians, biologists and mathematicians interested in cutting edge research and the application of quantitative and statistical methods to of biology, genetics, epidemiology, pharmacology, medicine, public health and other fields. It is anticipated that the Conference, which is the major international meeting of biostatisticians and biometricians throughout the world will be attended by 500 or more scientists from the international community.

该提案要求提供资金来支持大约25名美国科学家、大约10名具有组织者和特邀演讲者等官方身份的参与者以及大约15名年轻研究人员（包括女性和少数族裔）参加第17届国际生物识别会议的差旅费。会议将于1994年8月8日至12日在安大略的汉密尔顿举行。这些会议的优势在于国际上对生物学、遗传学、流行病学、药理学、医学、公共卫生和其他领域的数量和统计方面感兴趣的统计学家、生物学家和数学家的广泛参与。与这些问题直接相关的统计专题将讨论的议题包括质量管理、混合分布、神经网络、遗传学、重复测量和纵向数据分析、渔业空间模型和气候变化、生物测定校准、流行病、DNA和蛋白质序列、吉布斯抽样和恢复计算机密集型方法、空间和时间环境建模、脆弱性模型、癌症模型和生态影响分析;所有这些都直接关系到当今主要问题的解决方案，包括生态与环境，艾滋病，癌症和心脏病，植物科学流行病学，农业，林业等。此外，对重复测量，结构推断，图像处理和因果推理都直接应用于当前与健康相关的科学和农业科学。会议是全世界生物统计学家和生物统计学家的主要国际会议，预计将有来自国际社会的500多名科学家出席。该提案要求提供资金，以支持大约25名美国科学家的旅费，其中包括大约10名具有组织者和特邀演讲者等官方身份的与会者以及大约15名年轻的调查人员（包括妇女和少数民族），他们将参加1994年8月8日至12日在安大略的汉密尔顿举行的第17届国际生物测定学会议。会议的优势在于国际上对尖端研究感兴趣的统计学家、生物学家和数学家的广泛参与，以及将定量和统计方法应用于生物学、遗传学、流行病学、药理学、医学、公共卫生和其他领域。会议是全世界生物统计学家和生物统计学家的主要国际会议，预计将有来自国际社会的500多名科学家出席。
