Abstract Submission for Contributed Papers

Home : SSC2009 | en français | Large font | Small font

The deadline for submission of contributed papers submission has passed!

The Program Committee is calling for contributed 15-minute talks or poster presentations, either in statistics or in probability. Submissions must be made through the conference website by Friday, February 6, 2009, and must include the paper’s title, the authors’ names, affiliations, and an abstract in English or French of 100 words or less. Complete submissions in both languages are highly encouraged. The speaker and the preferred format (talk or poster) should also be clearly noted. Tentative scheduling information will be available by March.

Poster Presentations

This year, the Program Committee is making a special call to everyone, but especially students and postdoctoral fellows, to display or present their most recent results as posters. This provides an opportunity for media, professors, and students of all levels to gain an appreciation for the type of projects being undertaken in the fields of probability and statistics. Size restrictions and suggestions about how to prepare a poster presentation will be available soon.

Bilingualism

The SSC is proud to be a bilingual organization that promotes the use of both English and French during the Annual Meeting’s presentations. An abstract in English or in French of 100 words or less must be included. Authors who can provide abstracts in both languages are highly encouraged to do so as the Program Book is fully bilingual. Participants who submit their abstract in both French and English are eligible to be entered in a special draw with a first prize of a free SSC membership as well as a gift-certificate for a book from a well-known bookseller. Please note that computer-generated translations will not be accepted.

You must also provide the language in which you intend to give your oral presentation as well as the language of the visual aids. These will be included in the Program Book. When presenting in one language, we suggest that those who can please provide the visual aids in the other language.

Please note that the person delivering a talk must register for the meeting by the deadline of April 17, 2009. Speakers who fail to do so will be removed from the program.
