The SRCOS Summer Research Conference in Statistics and Biostatistics

研究者及其同事将于2018年6月3日至6日在弗吉尼亚州弗吉尼亚海滩的弗吉尼亚海滩度假酒店和会议中心组织并举办统计学和生物统计学夏季研究会议（SRC）。 2018年SRC将是该会议的第54周年。 南部区域委员会是由南部区域统计理事会主办的年度会议。 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。 该项目将侧重于年轻研究人员，让他们与该领域的领导人保持密切联系，以进行人与人之间的互动，这在大多数其他会议上是不可能的。 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。根据该奖项提供的旅行支持，学生将参加并在海报上展示他们的研究，由更有经验的研究人员进行审查。南方地区统计理事会是南方统计和生物统计方案的联合体，向西延伸到得克萨斯州，向北延伸到马里兰州。 它目前在该地区16个州的45所大学设有成员项目。 该项目将资助学生参加由SRCOS赞助的2018年夏季研究会议（SRC）。 会议是特别有价值的学生和教师从较小的区域学校在可行驶的距离，使他们有机会参与并与国际知名的领导人在该领域密切互动，而无需前往遥远的国家或国际场馆的成本。 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。 有关所有细节，请访问www.example.com上的会议链接http://odu.edu/math/srcos/.This奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并被认为值得通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估来支持。

The investigator and his colleagues will organize and conduct a Summer Research Conference (SRC) in statistics and biostatistics at Virginia Beach Resort Hotel and Conference Center in Virginia Beach, Virginia on June 3-6, 2018. The 2018 SRC will be the 54th anniversary of that conference. The SRC is an annual conference sponsored by the Southern Regional Council on Statistics (SRCOS). 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 project will focus 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. Under 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 is a consortium of statistics and biostatistics programs in the South, stretching as far west as Texas and as far north as Maryland. It currently has member programs at 45 universities in 16 states in the region. This project will fund student participation in the 2018 Summer Research Conference (SRC) sponsored by SRCOS. The meeting is particularly valuable for students and faculty from smaller regional schools at drivable distances, affording them the opportunity to participate and interact closely with internationally-known leaders in the field without the cost of travel to distant national or international venues. It will strengthen the research of the statistics and biostatistics community as a whole, and particularly in the relatively underdeveloped southern region.
