NSF-CBMS Regional Conference in Mathematical Sciences: New Horizons in Multiple Comparison Procedures August 13-17, 2001

2001年8月13日至17日，将在宾夕法尼亚州费城的坦普尔大学举行题为“多重比较程序中的新视野”的NSF-CBMS数学科学区域会议。以色列特拉维夫大学的Yosef Hochberg教授是多重比较领域的主要研究人员，他将发表一系列十个讲座，涵盖多重比较领域最近最重要的一些进展。每堂课后将有充足的时间进行非正式讨论，另外几位演讲者每人将进行一小时的演讲。会议的一个主要焦点将是学生和新的研究人员，特别是来自费城地区的学生和新研究人员，有机会与现有的研究人员进行对话，在多次比较中更深入地了解更新的想法。申请的资金将用于支持约10名在多重比较领域拥有资质的知名研究人员和15名较年轻的研究人员的参与，重点是那些来自传统代表性不足群体的研究人员。

An NSF-CBMS Regional Conference in the Mathematical SCiences entitled, "New Horizons in Multiple Comparison Procedures" will be held during August 13 - 17, 2001 at Temple University, Philadelphia, PA. Professor Yosef Hochberg of Tel Aviv University, Israel, a leading researcher in the area of multiple comparisons, is the principal lecturer who will deliver a series of ten lectures covering some of the most important recent advances in multiple comparisons. Ample time will be provided after each lecture for informal discussions, and one-hour talks willbe given by each of a number of additional speakers. A major focus of the conference will be opportunities for students and new researchers, particularly those from the Philadelphia area, to engage in dialogues with established researchers to gain a deeper understanding of newer ideas in multiple comparisons. The funds requested will be to support the participation of about ten established and fifteen younger researchers having credentials in the area of multiple comparisons, with an emphasis on those from traditionally underrepresented groups.
