Posted in pictures, Statistics, Travel, University life with tags BayesComp 2020, Bayesian computing, conference, deadline, Florida, Gainesville, ISBA, MCMSki, Monte Carlo Statistical Methods, software, USA on March 20, 2019 by xi'anJust to remind readers of the incoming deadline for BayesComp sessions:
The deadline for providing a title and brief abstract that the session is April 1, 2019. Please provide the names and affiliations of the organizer and the three speakers (the organizer can be one of them). Each session lasts 90 minutes and each talk should be 30 minutes long including Q&A. Contributed sessions can also consist of tutorials on the use of novel software. Decisions will be made by April 15, 2019. Please send your proposals to Christian Robert, co-chair of the scientific committee. We look forward to seeing you at BayesComp 20!
In case you do not feel like organising a whole session by yourself, contact the ISBA section you feel affinity with and suggest it helps building this session together!

The deadline is April 1 and the sessions will be selected by the scientific committee, other proposals being offered the possibility to present the associated research during a poster session [which always is a lively component of the conference]. (Conversely, we reserve the possibility of a “last call” session made from particularly exciting posters on new topics.) Plenary speakers for this conference are
- David Blei (Columbia University)
- Paul Fearnhead (University of Lancaster)
- Emily Fox (University of Washington)
- Max Welling (University of Amsterdam)
and the first invited sessions are already posted on the webpage of the conference. We dearly hope to attract a wide area of research interests into a as diverse as possible program, so please accept this invitation!!!
