Conference: ICSA 2023 Applied Statistical Symposium

该奖项支持研究生、早期研究人员和统计领域未被充分代表的群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”，该研讨会将于2023年6月11日至14日在密歇根州安娜堡的密歇根大学举行。本次会议是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应用的理论和方法研究的成熟和初级研究人员以及学生。它为更广泛的统计社区提供了一个很好的机会来建立网络，并就统计理论、方法和应用的最新发展交换意见。会议的形式包括多次全体会议，邀请会议，学生论文比赛，贡献海报和短期课程。主办单位努力提高演讲者的多样性，保持健康包容的氛围。此外，还将组织一场关于指导和职业发展的特别小组讨论，特别针对女性和来自科学、技术、工程和数学（STEM）领域代表性不足的群体的研究人员。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。该奖项反映了美国国家科学基金会的法定使命，并通过基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行了评估，认为值得支持。

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.
