[Forum SIS] StaTalks, Roma 9 settembre 2016

[Brunero Liseo]

Dear all,

we are pleased to announce that the third meeting of the *StaTalk* series
will be held at *Facoltà di Economia di Sapienza Università di Roma
*on *September
9, 2016*.



StaTalks are one-day workshops on statistical topics during which the
hosting group introduces and overviews the main research interests of their
members.
Aimed at Master’s and PhD students, as well as at post-docs and young
researchers, StaTalks are intended to be informal gatherings which allow
for a more proficient interaction between presenters and participants. They
typically feature some introductory tutorials on the main workshop theme
and a few seminars that overview more advanced research topics, still kept
at an expository level. StaTalks are thus a great opportunity to become
acquainted with the workshop main topic, as well as to share and update
one's knowledge on the interface of Statistical research in an easy and
informal atmosphere.
StaTalks are endorsed by Y-SIS (
https://sites.google.com/site/youngsocietaitalianastatistica/), the young
section of the Italian Statistical Society.



The topic of the third StaTalk will be on *Computational Tools for
Statistical Modelling*. We will present and discuss both standard and new
computational methods which represents fundamental tools for new
challenging applications, such as economic, finance, genetic and official
statistics.
