Conference: ICSA 2023 Applied Statistical Symposium

该奖项支持研究生，早期职业研究人员和统计学代表性不足的团体成员参加国际华人统计协会（ICSA）2023年应用统计研讨会，主题为“从数据到知识的统计学习和推理”，于2023年6月11日至6月14日在密歇根州安阿伯的密歇根大学举行。该活动是ICSA第32届正式年会。会议的主要目标是汇集来自世界各地的资深和初级研究人员以及学生，他们正在积极从事统计学，生物统计学，数据科学及其在各个相关领域的应用的理论和方法研究。它为更广泛的统计界提供了一个很好的机会，使他们能够就统计理论、方法和应用的最新发展建立网络并交换意见。会议的形式包括多个全体会议，邀请会议，学生论文比赛，贡献海报和短期课程。主办方努力增强演讲者的多样性，并保持健康的包容性氛围。此外，还将组织一次关于辅导和职业发展的特别小组讨论，特别是针对来自科学、技术、工程和数学（STEM）领域代表性不足的群体的妇女和研究人员。对于学生，会议将提供机会，如学生论文比赛和贡献海报会议。该奖项反映了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。

This award supports the participation of graduate students, early-career researchers, and members of groups underrepresented in statistics in the International Chinese Statistical Association (ICSA) 2023 Applied Statistics Symposium, with the theme “Statistical Learning and Reasoning from Data to Knowledge”, held at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, Michigan, from June 11 – June 14, 2023. The event serves as the 32nd official annual meeting of ICSA. The main objective of the conference is to bring together both well-established and junior researchers, as well as students, from around the world who are actively pursuing theoretical and methodological research in statistics, biostatistics, data sciences and their applications in various allied fields. It provides the broader statistical community with a great opportunity to network and exchange ideas of recent developments in statistical theory, methodology, and applications. The format of the conference includes multiple plenary talks, invited sessions, student paper competitions, contributed posters and short courses. The organizers strive to enhance diversity of speakers and maintain a healthy inclusive atmosphere. In addition, a special panel discussion will be organized on mentoring and career development, especially geared toward women and researchers from groups underrepresented in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM). For students, the conference will provide opportunities such as a student paper competition and contributed poster sessions.
