cc: Jasjeet Sekhon <jsekhon(a)fas.harvard.edu> Subject: Applied Statistics MIME-Version: 1.0 Research Workshop in Applied Statistics Jasjeet Singh Sekhon (Government), Donald B. Rubin (Statistics), Rebecca Aubrey Betensky (Biostatistics, School of Public Health), and Lee Fleming (Business School) The Research Workshop in Applied Statistics is a forum for graduate students, faculty, and visiting scholars to present and discuss work in progress and exchange ideas. It is intended as a tour of Harvard's statistical innovations and applications with weekly stops in different disciplines such as economics, epidemiology, medicine, political science, psychology, public health, sociology, and statistics. The topics of papers presented in previous years included missing data, survey analysis, Bayesian simulation, sample selection, and models for election and portfolio choice. Faculty and student participants in the workshop present their current projects, and guest speakers also give occasional presentations. This workshop provides an excellent opportunity for informal interaction between graduate students and faculty from a variety of disciplines. Course credit is available for students as Government 3009. Lunch is provided. If you are interested, please be sure to attend our first meeting on Wednesday, September 12th at noon, in Room 22, Center for Basic Research in Social Sciences (CBRSS, 34 Kirkland St., this is the yellow building across the street from William James Hall). Further information including last semester's presentations may be found at the course web site: http://www.courses.fas.harvard.edu/~gov3009/ We also have a mailing list.
