We will build a group in Mathematical Statistics based upon established excellence and expertise in the Statistical Laboratory and elsewhere in the University. Theoretical statistics takes its life blood from areas of potential application, and thus the current project will be developed in collaboration with distinguished groups elsewhere in Cambridge and the UK. The principal target of the Statistics group will be to develop core mathematical and methodological statistics of generic importance for applications. The major partner is the Engineering Department, where applications are confronted through the development of generic theory. Through strong links to application areas, the research of the group will bring greater value to UK industryFour new Lectureships will be established, funded initially from the EPSRC Award but thereafter as a full charge on University funds. A further University-funded Chair in Statistics will be created in the Statistical Laboratory. The five appointees will join existing tenured staff in the Statistical Laboratory and Engineering with associated interests to form a new group. There will be about 21 person-years of postdoctoral Research Assistantship, and 9 PhD studentships. The individuals appointed to these posts will support the research programmes of members of the group, will collaborate with cognate groups in Cambridge, and will be trained as independent researchers suitable for employment in the UK higher-education sector. The Research Assistants will pursue innovative research, while developing their levels of administrative and teaching skills through contact with undergraduate and graduate students.

我们将在统计实验室和大学其他地方已有的卓越经验和专门知识的基础上，建立一个数理统计小组。理论统计学的生命力来自潜在的应用领域，因此，目前的项目将与剑桥和英国其他地方的知名团体合作开发。统计小组的主要目标将是发展对应用具有普遍重要性的核心数学和方法统计。主要的合作伙伴是工程部，在那里通过开发通用理论来面对应用。通过与应用领域的紧密联系，该小组的研究将为英国工业带来更大的价值四个新的讲座将被建立，最初由EPSRC奖资助，但之后作为大学资金的全额收费。统计实验室还将设立一个由大学资助的统计教席。五名获委任的人士将加入统计实验室及工程学现有的终身教职员，组成一个新的组别。将有大约21个人年的博士后研究助学金和9个博士生奖学金。被任命担任这些职位的个人将支持该小组成员的研究计划，将与剑桥的同类团体合作，并将接受培训，成为适合在英国高等教育部门就业的独立研究人员。研究助理将从事创新研究，同时通过与本科生和研究生的接触来发展他们的行政和教学技能水平。
