Invited session proposal submission for JSM 2015 has now closed.
Introductory overview lectures (IOLs) provide relatively brief, high-quality introductions to important and timely statistical topics covered in a more specialized form in JSM technical sessions. In some cases, IOLs present material from rapidly developing areas of methodology or applications. In other cases, they introduce important and challenging statistical topics that are relatively mature, but may not be well known outside of a specialist group. In all cases, IOL topics are selected because of their potential to enrich the future directions of statistical theory and practice through broader dissemination.
Proposals for IOLs-to include topics and speakers—will be accepted via email by the JSM program chair until November 26, 2014.
A late-breaking session must cover one or more technical, scientific, or policy-related topics that have arisen in the one-year period prior to the JSM in which the session is proposed to appear.
Proposals for late-breaking sessions for JSM 2015 will be accepted via email by the JSM program chair February 6 - April 15, 2015. A proposal for a late-breaking session should contain the following information:
As you prepare these items, please note that all prospective session participants-including the chair, speakers/panelists, and discussants-should have agreed to participate in the session before the session proposal is submitted.
