The Summer Research Conference in Statistics and Biostatistics will be held in Jekyll Island, Georgia on June 4-7, 2017. This meeting is the 53rd in a sequence of annual conferences. Its purpose is to encourage the interchange and mutual understanding of current research ideas in statistics and biostatistics, and to give motivation and direction to further research progress. The conference focuses on young researchers, placing them in close proximity to leaders in the field for person-to-person interactions in a manner not possible at most other meetings. Speakers will present formal research talks with adequate time allowed for clarification, amplification, and further informal discussions in small groups. With the travel support provided by this award, students will attend and present their research in posters to be reviewed by more experienced researchers.The Southern Regional Council on Statistics (SRCOS) is a consortium of statistics and biostatistics programs in the South, with member programs at 45 universities in 16 states in the region. This project will fund student participation in the 2017 Summer Research Conference (SRC) sponsored by SRCOS. The meeting is particularly valuable for students and faculty from smaller schools in the region, affording them the opportunity to participate and interact closely with internationally-known leaders in the field without the cost of travel to distant venues. It will strengthen the research of the statistics and biostatistics community as a whole, and particularly in the relatively underdeveloped southern region. The conference's five session topics are Complex Spatial Environmental Problems, Statistical Education, Functional Data Analysis, Causal Inference, and Integrative Omics.

在统计和生物统计夏季研究会议将于2017年6月4日至7日在格鲁吉亚的杰基尔岛举行。本次会议是一系列年度会议中的第53次会议。其目的是鼓励交流和相互了解目前的研究思想在统计和生物统计，并给予动力和方向，以进一步的研究进展。该会议的重点是年轻的研究人员，把他们在近距离的领导人在该领域的人对人的互动方式不可能在大多数其他会议。发言者将提出正式的研究会谈，有足够的时间进行澄清，放大，并在小组中进一步进行非正式讨论。与此奖项提供的旅行支持，学生将出席，并提出他们的研究海报，以审查更有经验的研究人员。南部区域统计理事会（SRCOS）是一个联盟的统计和生物统计方案在南方，与成员方案在45所大学在该地区的16个国家。该项目将资助学生参加由SRCOS赞助的2017年夏季研究会议（SRC）。该会议对该地区规模较小的学校的学生和教师特别有价值，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。它将加强整个统计和生物统计界的研究，特别是在相对欠发达的南部地区。会议的五个会议主题是复杂的空间环境问题，统计教育，功能数据分析，因果推理和集成组学。更多细节可在会议网站http://web1.sph.emory.edu/srcos/上找到。
