2019 NISS Writing Workshop for Junior Researchers

2019年NISS初级研究人员写作研讨会将于2019年7月28日和30日在丹佛举行的联合统计会议（JSM）上举行，参与者是25名统计学，生物统计学和数据科学的初级研究人员，自博士学位以来不到6年，优先考虑那些不到3年的人。 写作研讨会提供个人动手指导和指导如何写期刊文章和赠款建议。 初级研究人员与高级编辑配对作为导师。 以前的讲习班非常成功，许多讲习班参加者后来成为主要统计期刊的副编辑或共同编辑。 从2007年到2011年，也就是这个研讨会的前五年，109名毕业生中的个人至少担任了23名副编辑和一名联合编辑。写作是统计学家和数据科学家教育的一个重要组成部分，但往往被忽视。写得不好不仅会阻碍研究成果的发表，也会阻碍基金申请的成功。 在过去几年中，国家统计研究所为统计学、生物统计学和数据科学的初级研究人员组织了技术写作讲习班。2019年NISS写作研讨会由两部分组成。周日辅导是一个全天的会议，涵盖科学写作，以及如何组织一篇论文。研讨会将涵盖伦理问题，撰写资助申请，期刊选择策略，有效使用图形，以及理解和回应审稿人的评论。 在本课程结束时，参与者将与他们的导师会面，导师分析了参与者在JSM之前提交的论文。 星期二的会议集中在改进手稿的具体问题上。 该研讨会的网站是：https://www.niss.org/events/2019-niss-writing-workshop-junior-researchers-jsmThis奖反映了NSF的法定使命，并已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的支持。

The 2019 NISS Writing Workshop for Junior Researchers will be held at the Joint Statistical Meetings (JSM) on July 28 and 30, 2019, in Denver, CO. The participants are 25 junior researchers in statistics, biostatistics, and data science, with less than 6 years since their PhD and preference to those with less than 3 years. The writing workshop provides individual hands-on guidance and mentoring on how to write journal articles and grant proposals. Junior researchers are paired with senior editors as mentors. Previous workshops have been very successful with many workshop participants going on to become associate editors or co-editors of major statistical journals. Individuals from among the 109 graduates from 2007 to 2011, the first five years of this workshop, have held at least 23 associate editorships and one co-editorship.Writing well is a critical but often short-changed component of the education of statisticians and data scientists. The inability to write well can hinder not only publication of a researcher's results but also success with grant proposals. Over the past several years, NISS has organized technical writing workshops for junior researchers in statistics, biostatistics and data science. The 2019 NISS writing workshop consists of two parts. The Sunday tutorial is an all-day session that covers scientific writing, as well as how to organize a paper. The workshop will cover ethical issues, writing grant proposals, strategies for journal choice, effective use of graphics, and understanding and responding to reviewers' comments. At the end of this session, participants will meet with their mentor who analyzed a paper the participant submitted prior to JSM. The Tuesday session focuses on specific issues for improving a manuscript.
