The Latin American Conference on Probability and Mathematical Statistics (CLAPEM, by its initials in Spanish) is the main event in probability and statistics in the region, having been held roughly every two to three years for almost 30 years. The series of CLAPEMs has greatly contributed to the development of probability and statistics in Latin America, and the NSF has provided support for the conference during the last 15 years. Accordingly, this award will provide travel support for four senior and at least eight junior U.S.-based researchers who will be participating in the XIII CLAPEM, to be held in Cartagena, Colombia, from September 22nd to September 26th, 2014. The event includes a diverse and high-quality scientific program with short courses (Theory of Statistical Learning, Mathematical Genetics and Bioinformatics, and Quantitative Risk Management), plenary talks (High Dimensional Data Analysis, Stochastic Processes, and Quantum Information Theory), special thematic sessions (Functional Data, Particle Systems, Sampling Methods and Random Segmentation Models, among others), and contributed oral and poster presentations. The participants include researchers from all over Latin America, Europe and the United States, providing an excellent forum for the development of collaborations and for the recruitment of highly qualified foreign students.The National Science Foundation (NSF) has long recognized the importance to the United States of the participation of U.S.-based researchers in international scientific events. In particular, NSF has long supported the participation of U.S.-based researchers in the Latin American Conference on Probability and Mathematical Statistics (CLAPEM, by its initials in Spanish). This award will support the participation of both junior and senior researchers working at U.S. institution in the upcoming XIII CLAPEM, which is to be held in Cartagena, Colombia, from September 22nd to September 26th, 2014. The participation of these researchers in the XIII CLAPEM will have a positive impact in the region (by increasing the quality of the conference's scientific program and facilitating collaborations between U.S.-based and Latin American researchers) and in the U.S. (by maintaining our country's international leadership in research on probability and statistics and helping to attract the best and brightest young Latin American minds to graduate programs in the U.S.).

拉丁美洲概率和数理统计会议（CLAPEM，西班牙文首字母缩写）是该区域概率和统计方面的主要活动，近30年来大约每两三年举行一次。CLAPEMS系列会议极大地促进了拉丁美洲概率和统计学的发展，NSF在过去15年中为会议提供了支持。 因此，该奖项将为四名高级和至少八名初级美国-将于2014年9月22日至9月26日在哥伦比亚卡塔赫纳举行的第十三届CLAPEM。该活动包括一个多样化和高质量的科学计划，（统计学习理论，数学遗传学和生物信息学，定量风险管理），全体会议（高维数据分析，随机过程和量子信息理论），特别专题会议（函数数据，粒子系统，采样方法和随机分割模型，等等），并提供口头和海报介绍。 参加者包括来自拉丁美洲、欧洲和美国各地的研究人员，为发展合作和招募高素质的外国学生提供了一个极好的论坛。美国国家科学基金会（NSF）长期以来一直认识到美国参与的重要性。国际科学活动中的研究人员。 特别是，NSF长期以来一直支持美国的参与-拉丁美洲概率与数理统计会议（CLAPEM，西班牙语缩写）的研究人员。 该奖项将支持在美国工作的初级和高级研究人员参加即将到来的第十三届CLAPEM，这是在哥伦比亚卡塔赫纳举行，从9月22日至9月26日，2014年机构。 这些研究人员参加第十三届CLAPEM会议将对该地区产生积极影响（通过提高会议科学计划的质量和促进美国和美国之间的合作）。在美国（通过保持我国在概率和统计研究方面的国际领导地位，并帮助吸引最优秀和最聪明的拉丁美洲年轻人到美国攻读研究生课程）。会议网址为http://www.clapem.unal.edu.co/
