About the 2014 conference : BSS and PhD Day
BSS 2014 is the 22nd annual meeting of the Belgian Statistical Society. The conference is intended to be a meeting place for researchers, practitioners, users and potential users of Statistics and related fields.
This year the meeting is organised by UCL and takes place in the Hotel Ibis Styles Meeting Center in Louvain-la-Neuve.
As usual, the Quetelet Society, B-Enbis and the Biostatistics Section of the BSS participate in the organisation.
The Belgian Statistical Society (BSS) was founded in 1937. The scope of the Society is to contribute to scientific progress in statistics by promoting cooperation between Belgian statisticians and to help the general public to get a better understanding of the place of statistics in the modern world. The Society currently has over 300 ordinary members and 8 honorary members.
The B-Stat News, the BSS Newsletter, is published three times per year in January, May and September. Scientific events are organised each year, amongst which the BSS annual meeting.
As usual, the first day of the conference is dedicated to young statisticans. This year, it is integrated with the PhD Day, jointly organized by the Ecole doctorale thematique en Statistique et Sciences Actuarielles et FLAMES. The purpose of the PhD Day is to bring together the PhD students in statistics, biostatistics and actuarial sciences of the French speaking universities in Belgium and, this year, of the Flemish-speaking universities as well.
Looking forward to seeing you at the BSS 2014 and the PhD Day!
