The call is now closed

The conference is intended as a meeting place for researchers in all major fields of statistical science. The RSSB2021 annual meeting consists in plenary lectures given by keynote speakers on topics of general interest and parallel sessions including both invited and contributed talks on more specialized topics. A poster session (with a speed presentation) is also scheduled on Thursday 21 October.

We invite all researchers, practitioners, and PhD candidates interested in statistics or probability to participate in the conference and to present their work in all fields of methodology and application: mathematical statistics, probability theory, random processes, statistical methodology, data analysis, biostatistics, design studies, planning of experiments, pharmaceutical studies, clinical trials, medical statistics, statistical learning and big data.

Contributed talks

Together with some invited talks, the parallel sessions will feature contributed talks. Each contributed talk will be allocated 20 minutes: 15 minutes for presenting and 5 minutes for discussion and questions.

Lecture rooms are equipped with a computer and video-projector. The speakers generally bring their presentation file on a USB storage device in a common format (ppt/pptx, pdf). Please show up 10 minutes before your session to upload your presentation on the computer. In case of no shows or last minute cancellations, the assigned time slot is left empty, so that all presentations start as indicated in the program.

Posters

Authors who prefer can alternatively present their research by means of a poster during the dedicated poster session. The participants who submit a poster are asked to prepare a 1-slide summary with a max 2-minute oral presentation to be delivered at the Conference, during the Poster Pitch session.

Abstract submission

Authors who wish to present their work either by a contributed talk or a poster are invited to submit an abstract in LaTeX format using this template (for Overleaf template, click here).
