IOLs & Late-Breaking Sessions
Introductory Overview Lectures
Introductory overview lectures (IOLs) provide relatively brief, high-quality introductions to important and timely statistical topics covered in a more specialized form than in other JSM sessions.

In some cases, IOLs present material from rapidly developing areas of methodology or applications. In others, they introduce important and challenging statistical topics that are relatively mature but may not be known well outside 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.
