Symposium on "Advances in Statistical Methods for the Analysis of Observational and Experimental Data"

该奖项支持参加2013年7月13日在北卡罗来纳州罗利市北卡罗来纳州立大学校园举行的观测和实验数据分析统计方法进展研讨会的与会者的旅费。在过去几十年中，在分析实验和观测研究数据的统计理论和方法方面取得了许多重大进展。这些发展对统计实践产生了深远的影响。这次会议的特色是领导人在审查的事件间隔数据、缺失数据、纵向数据和因果推断等领域的统计理论和方法的发展方面的演讲。这次会议将成为讨论统计学方法和理论发展的论坛，这些方法和理论推动了卫生、生物、流行病学、社会和经济科学的研究进展。这次会议为初级研究人员提供了一个绝佳的机会，让他们对新出现的趋势有一个有价值的看法，并有机会与负责过去和现在进展的高级和中级职业领导人互动。会议网址：http://www.stat.ncsu.edu/events/2013_tsiatis_symposium/

This award supports travel for participants in the symposium Advances in Statistical Methods for the Analysis of Observational and Experimental Data, held July 13, 2013 on the North Carolina State University campus in Raleigh, North Carolina. The past several decades have seen numerous significant advances in statistical theory and methodology for the analysis of data from experimental and observational studies. These developments have had a profound impact on statistical practice. The conference features presentations by leaders in the development of statistical theory and methods in areas such as censored time-to-event data, missing data, longitudinal data, and causal inference. The conference will serve as a forum for discussion of developments in statistical methodology and theory that have propelled advances in research in the health, biological, epidemiological, social, and economic sciences. The conference offers a perfect opportunity for junior researchers to gain a valuable perspective on emerging trends and the opportunity to interact with senior and mid-career level leaders responsible for past and present advances.Conference web site: http://www.stat.ncsu.edu/events/2013_tsiatis_symposium/
