統計所B1演講廳

We are honored to invite presidents/representatives from all seven associations of the International Statistical Institute (ISI, https://www.isi-web.org/), as well as the presidents of Taiwan’s two major statistical associations—the Chinese Institute of Probability and Statistics (CIPS) and the Chinese Statistical Association (CSA)—to participate in this session. The goal of this session is not only to introduce the latest developments from each association but also to facilitate in-depth discussions that will strengthen the collaboration and connections between Taiwan’s statistical community and the international statistical community. Engaging with many prominent international statisticians and leaders is a rare opportunity. We sincerely invite everyone to participate this session.
