This award supports graduate-student participation in the Summer Research Conference in Statistics and Biostatistics, held June 5-8, 2016 in Bentonville, Arkansas. The meeting, part of an annual research conference series sponsored by the Southern Regional Council on Statistics, is designed to encourage the interchange and mutual understanding of research ideas in statistics and biostatistics, and to give motivation and direction to further research progress, particularly for young researchers, in a manner not ordinarily possible at other meetings. The meeting is particularly valuable for graduate students and faculty from smaller regional schools in the South. Each year, the location of the conference is chosen to be within driving distance for researchers in the southern region, thus affording them the opportunity to participate and interact closely with internationally-known leaders in the field without the cost of travel to distant venues. Speakers present formal research talks with adequate time allowed for clarification, amplification, and further informal discussions in small groups. Senior participants make themselves accessible for informal discussions of their research as well.This year's Summer Research Conference centers on five topical areas: Measurement Error Models, Visual Analytics, Alzheimer's Disease Modeling, Survival Analysis, and Big Data Prediction Modeling. In addition to two plenary speakers for the conference, each topical area features talks by one senior speaker and two junior speakers. A poster session for graduate students will be held on the second day. This award provides travel funding for graduate students who are making poster presentations and in need of support.

该奖项支持研究生参加统计和生物统计学夏季研究会议，2016年6月5日至8日在阿肯色州本顿维尔举行。 这次会议是由南部区域统计理事会主办的年度研究会议系列的一部分，目的是鼓励交流和相互了解统计和生物统计方面的研究思想，并以其他会议通常不可能的方式，为进一步的研究进展，特别是年轻的研究人员提供动力和指导。这次会议对来自南方较小区域学校的研究生和教员特别有价值。每年，会议的地点都选择在南部地区研究人员的驾车距离内，从而使他们有机会参与并与该领域的国际知名领导人密切互动，而无需前往遥远的地点。发言者提出正式的研究会谈，有足够的时间允许澄清，放大，并在小组进一步非正式讨论。今年的夏季研究会议围绕五个主题领域展开：测量误差模型、可视化分析、阿尔茨海默病建模、生存分析和大数据预测建模。 除了两名全体发言人的会议，每个主题领域的功能由一名高级发言人和两名初级发言人会谈。第二天将举行研究生海报会议。该奖项为正在制作海报演示并需要支持的研究生提供旅行资金。 欲了解更多信息，请访问会议网页：www.stat.missouri.edu/~srcos/
