Symposium on "Advances in Statistical Methods for the Analysis of Observational and Experimental Data"

该奖项为参加2013年7月13日在北卡罗来纳州罗利市北卡罗莱纳州立大学校园举行的“观测和实验数据分析统计方法进展”研讨会的与会者提供旅费。在过去的几十年里，在实验和观察研究数据分析的统计理论和方法方面取得了许多重大进展。这些发展对统计实践产生了深远的影响。会议的特色是领导人在统计理论和方法的发展方面的演讲，如审查时间到事件数据，缺失数据，纵向数据和因果推理。会议将作为一个论坛，讨论统计方法和理论的发展，这些发展推动了卫生、生物、流行病学、社会和经济科学的研究进展。会议为初级研究人员提供了一个绝佳的机会，可以获得对新兴趋势的有价值的观点，并有机会与负责过去和现在进展的高级和中级职业领导人进行互动。会议网址：http://www.stat.ncsu.edu/events/2013_tsiatis_symposium/

This award supports travel for participants in the symposium Advances in Statistical Methods for the Analysis of Observational and Experimental Data, held July 13, 2013 on the North Carolina State University campus in Raleigh, North Carolina. The past several decades have seen numerous significant advances in statistical theory and methodology for the analysis of data from experimental and observational studies. These developments have had a profound impact on statistical practice. The conference features presentations by leaders in the development of statistical theory and methods in areas such as censored time-to-event data, missing data, longitudinal data, and causal inference. The conference will serve as a forum for discussion of developments in statistical methodology and theory that have propelled advances in research in the health, biological, epidemiological, social, and economic sciences. The conference offers a perfect opportunity for junior researchers to gain a valuable perspective on emerging trends and the opportunity to interact with senior and mid-career level leaders responsible for past and present advances.Conference web site: http://www.stat.ncsu.edu/events/2013_tsiatis_symposium/
