9910238The Fourth International Conference on Forensic Statistics will be held at North Carolina State University on Dec. 5-8, 1999. The conference is intended to allow statisticians, forensic scientists, lawyers, and scholars from related disciplines to discuss the many and varied uses of Probability and Statistics in legislative, administrative and judicial proceedings. Forensic Statistics, the application of Statistics and Probability to legal matters, is an expanding field. The current debates surrounding the presentation of evidence based on DNA profiling and epidemiological studies on the health effects of various drugs are just two examples. There is a great need for statisticians to provide guidance to forensic scientists, and lawyers and the courts. By bringing together statisticians, forensic scientists, lawyers and other scholars, this fourth international conference will further the interdisciplinary understanding of Statistics and Probability applied to legal matters. The conference is the fourth in a series. The previous conferences have been held at Univ. of Edinburgh and the Arizona State University. Based on previous attendance, about 250 people are expected to attend the fourth conference. This proposal provides funds to insure that U.S. participants will be able to hear and network with the best experts on this topic from this country and from abroad, and to provide access to the conference by graduate students, postdoctoral fellows, new researchers, and members of underrepresented groups.

9910238第四届法医统计国际会议将于1999年12月5日至8日在北卡罗来纳州立大学举行。该会议旨在允许统计学家，法医科学家，律师，律师和相关学科的学者讨论概率和统计多种多样的立法，行政和统计。 法医统计数据（将统计数据和概率应用于法律事务）是一个不断扩大的领域。 目前围绕基于DNA分析和流行病学研究对各种药物的健康影响的证据的辩论只是两个例子。 统计学家非常需要向法医，律师和法院提供指导。 通过将统计学家，法医学家，律师和其他学者汇集在一起​​，第四届国际会议将进一步跨学科的理解，对适用于法律事务的统计和概率。 会议是系列的第四次。 以前的会议已在大学举行。爱丁堡和亚利桑那州立大学。 根据先前的出席，预计将参加第四次会议。 该提案提供了资金，以确保美国参与者能够与该国和国外的最佳专家聆听并建立联系，并提供研究生，博士后研究员，新研究人员，新研究人员和代表性不足的团体的访问权限。
