The proposed meeting will take place over three days, August 1-3, 2013, at the Centre de recherches mathematiques in Montreal.This proposal describes plans for the 15th New Researchers Conference, a conference series organized by and held for junior researchers under the auspices of the Institute of Mathematical Statistics (IMS). The primary objective is to provide a much needed venue for interaction among new researchers in statistics and probability. The proposed meeting will take place over three days, August 1-3, 2013, at the Centre de recherches mathematiques in Montreal. The meeting will be held immediately preceding the Joint Statistical Meetings (JSM). Participants will be statisticians and probabilists who have received their Ph.D. within the past five years or are expecting to receive their degree within the same year. Each participant will present a short expository talk and a poster. Topics will cover a variety of areas in statistics and probability, from theory and methods to applications. Senior speakers will give plenary talks for inspiration and take part in four discussion panels covering topics of importance for young people embarking on an academic/research career: teaching, mentoring, publishing and funding. This conference series is explicitly aimed at training the future leaders and workers in statistics and probability. In helping to create networks of new researchers, it lays the groundwork for future collaboration and informal exchange of ideas and knowledge. It is also critical for building professional cohesion within the fields of statistics and probability and setting new frontiers for research. Meeting people outside of one's research specialty area, and learning about their research, favors a more comprehensive view of research, which is important when taking editor positions and other professional service activities. The conference attracts participants with different backgrounds and nationalities, and underrepresented groups (women, minorities and people with disabilities) are explicitly encouraged to attend.

建议的会议将于2013年8月1日至3日在蒙特利尔的数学研究中心举行，为期三天。该建议描述了第15届新研究人员会议的计划，该会议由数理统计研究所（IMS）主办，由初级研究人员组织。其主要目的是提供一个非常需要的场所，在统计和概率的新研究人员之间的互动。拟议的会议将于2013年8月1日至3日在蒙特利尔数学研究中心举行，为期三天。会议将在联合统计会议（JSM）之前举行。参与者将是统计学家和概率学家，他们获得了博士学位。在过去的五年内，或预计在同一年内获得学位。每位参与者将发表简短的演讲和海报。主题将涵盖统计和概率的各种领域，从理论和方法到应用。资深演讲者将在全体会议上发表演讲，以获得灵感，并参加四个讨论小组，讨论对从事学术/研究职业的年轻人至关重要的主题：教学，指导，出版和资助。 该系列会议明确旨在培养统计和概率方面的未来领导者和工作者。在帮助建立新的研究人员网络的过程中，它为未来的合作和非正式的思想和知识交流奠定了基础。这对于在统计和概率领域内建立专业凝聚力以及开辟新的研究领域也至关重要。与研究专业领域之外的人会面，了解他们的研究，有利于更全面地了解研究，这在担任编辑职位和其他专业服务活动时很重要。会议吸引了不同背景和国籍的与会者，并明确鼓励代表性不足的群体（妇女、少数民族和残疾人）参加。会议网址为http://www.math.mcgill.ca/nrc2013。
