Abstract:

We will describe funding opportunities in statistics and probability at the National Science Foundation with an emphasis on interdisciplinary funding opportunities. Many of the funds in budget increases for the Division of Mathematical Sciences at the National Science Foundation are to be used for interdisciplinary research with all the other divisions and directorates at NSF. These are called Mathematical Sciences Priority Area funds. Statistics and probability, as tools used by all other sciences, should be major recipients of these funds. Statistics and probability are not only unified disciplines but also unifying disciplines. To successfully compete for these funds statisticians and probabilists must be aware of these opportunities. The panel will describe these opportunities and give advice about successful proposal submission.
