Statistics Department Seminar
The Statistics Seminars for Spring Quarter will be held online via Zoom at 4:30pm on Tuesdays. During this period of restrictions on social gatherings within our community, the Statistics Department remains committed to providing a forum for sharing our research and that of our colleagues as regularly as possible. We hope to see everyone together in a live presentation very soon!
You can receive a weekly announcement of seminar offerings by subscribing to our mailing list at any time! Please follow the link for Statistics Seminars and fill in the fields required to subscribe, unsubscribe, change subscription options, and so on.
We provide a LaTeX template for speakers to use when submitting the abstract for a seminar (sample PDF output). Using this template makes it possible to post the abstract promptly and without unintended errors that might creep in if your text has to be migrated from another source.
Seminars are always open to the public! Questions about the series may be sent to seminars@stat.stanford.edu.
