Abstract:

Statisticians are increasingly being called on to participate in collaborative projects at the intersection of analysis, computation, and molecular biology. The growth of such studies--using microarrays, proteomics, and other recent laboratory technologies--is resulting in new opportunities for instruction and learning, as students, and researchers of many disciplines are seeking to acquire statistical know-how. Participants in this roundtable will discuss their teaching experiences in such settings with the goal of improving the educational outreach of our field to this interdisciplinary population.
