FIFTEENTH INTERNATIONAL BIOMETRIC CONFERENCE

这项提议要求资金来支持一半的旅行费用 60名科学家，大约25名美国科学家和35名外国科学家，他们将组织和 在第十五届国际生物识别大会上发表特邀论文。这个 会议将于1990年7月2日至6日在匈牙利布达佩斯举行。力量的力量 会议的关键在于国际社会的广泛参与 对量化感兴趣的统计学家、生物学家和数学家 生物学、遗传学、流行病学、药理学、 医药、公共卫生等领域。将讨论的主题 与健康问题直接相关的统计主题包括生存 分析、流行病学、遗传学、分子生物学、环境 污染监测、新陈代谢和药代动力学建模；所有这些 直接关系到当今主要健康问题的解决方案 包括艾滋病、癌症和心脏病。此外，还讨论了 重复测量的基本统计问题，结构推断， 图像处理和因果推理都直接应用于 当前与健康相关的科学。预计这次会议， 这是生物统计学家和 世界各地的生物识别专家将有400人或更多人参加 来自国际社会的科学家。

This proposal requests funds to support one-half of the travel expenses of 60 scientists, approximately 25 U.S. and 35 foreign, who will organize and present invited papers at the 15th International Biometric Conference. The meeting will be held 2-6 July 1990 in Budapest, Hungary. The strength of the meetings lies in the broad international participation of statisticians, biologists and mathematicians interested in quantitative statistical aspects of biology, genetics, epidemiology, pharmacology, medicine, public health and other fields. Topics to be discussed on statistical topics directly related to health issues include survival analysis, epidemiology, genetics, molecular biology, environmental pollution monitoring, modeling metabolism and pharmacokinetics;all of which have direct bearing on solutions to the major health concerns of today including AIDS, cancer and heart disease. In addition discussions on fundamental statistical issues of repeated measures, structural inference, image processing and causal inference all have direct application to current health related sciences. It is anticipated that the conference, which is the major international meeting of biostatisticians and biometricians throughout the world will be attended by 400 or more scientists from the international community.
