Keywords: Environmental statistics ; Interdisciplinary research ; NSF and NIH funding ; Student training ; Leadership roles
Abstract:

Statistical research is inherently multidisciplinary; a successfully funded research program for statisticians usually involves connections with other fields. But, how can we get the training started working in interdisciplinary teams? Furthermore, how do we seek opportunities for funding and leadership of interdisciplinary teams? Please join us during this roundtable to learn more about opportunities to get funding to work on statistical problems at the interface of biological, environmental, and other sciences.
