A few times every semester, students and faculty members in the Statistics and Biostatistics program meet to discuss a journal article over pizza. One of the participants leads the discussion, and everyone is invited to join in a lively discussion of the article. A remote option is available on MS Teams (link sent to the STATATUVM ListServ)
Location: Innovation Hall, room E100 + MS Teams.
Time: 12 PM (noon) Eastern Time.
To propose a paper for discussion, please get in touch with the organizers at <jean-gabriel.young@uvm.edu>.
