Ninth Meeting of New Researchers in Statistics and Probability

University of Washington, Seattle, WA
August 1-5, 2006

The IMS Committee on New Researchers is organizing a meeting of recent or soon to be Ph.D. recipients in Statistics and Probability. The purpose of the conference is to promote interaction among new researchers primarily by introducing them to each other's research in an informal setting. As part of the conference, participants will present talks and posters on their research and discuss interests and professional experiences over meals and social activities organized through the meeting as well as by the participants themselves. The relationships established in this informal collegiate setting among junior researchers are ones that may last a career (lifetime?!)

The meeting is to be held prior to the 2006 Joint Statistical Meetings in Seattle, WA.
