The statistics department at Colorado State University has hosted the Graybill conference since 2001. The theme of the conference differs from year to year, but the objective is to bring together researchers, practitioners, and graduate students, in a relaxed and stimulating atmosphere focused on research and applications. For the 2011 conference, the theme is ``Modern Nonparametric Methods.'' The program consists of a workshop, invited plenary talks, and a poster session. The intimate nature of the conference allows for concentrated discussion and interaction among the participants, which can be especially valuable for young researchers and graduate students. The conference will continue the series of topical conferences co-sponsored by the ASA Section on Nonparametric Statistics initiated in 2007, furthering the goal of establishing a biannual conference tradition on a topic of interest to this important segment of the statistical community. The continued development of practical nonparametric and semiparametric methods is crucial to the advancement of modern sciences, medicine, economics, agriculture, environment or global change, health and medicine, and many other fields. In many disciplines, the increasing availability of large amounts of high quality data has outpaced the methods available to analyze them. Flexible and robust tools such as modern nonparametric methods are increasingly necessary to address many questions encountered in practice, so that continued research in this area as well as education of future researchers will benefit the statistics discipline as well as the many disciplines that rely on it.

科罗拉多州立大学的统计系自2001年以来一直主办格雷比尔会议。 会议的主题每年都有所不同，但目标是将研究人员，从业人员和研究生聚集在一起，在轻松和刺激的氛围中专注于研究和应用。 2011年会议的主题是“现代非参数方法”。'' 该计划包括研讨会、特邀全体会议和海报会议。 会议的私密性允许与会者进行集中讨论和互动，这对年轻的研究人员和研究生特别有价值。 会议将继续2007年开始的由统计学阿萨非参数统计科共同主办的一系列专题会议，进一步实现就统计界这一重要部分感兴趣的专题建立一年两次会议传统的目标。 实用的非参数和半参数方法的持续发展对于现代科学、医学、经济学、农业、环境或全球变化、健康和医学以及许多其他领域的进步至关重要。 在许多学科中，大量高质量数据的可用性不断增加，已经超过了分析它们的方法。 灵活和强大的工具，如现代非参数方法越来越需要解决实践中遇到的许多问题，使在这一领域的持续研究以及未来研究人员的教育将有利于统计学科以及依赖于它的许多学科。
