SIE Lays Out JSM Program
The Statistics in Epidemiology (SIE) Section will serve as primary sponsor of five invited sessions, seven topic-contributed sessions, seven contributed sessions, four roundtable discussions, and one short course at the 2012 Joint Statistical Meetings in San Diego, California.
The SIE section would like to thank Melissa D. Begg, our chair, and Jaya Satagopan, our secretary/treasurer for their hard work on behalf of the section this year. We also thank Dylan Small, our program chair, for his wonderful job of organizing our sessions at JSM.
The Section also wishes to congratulate our newly elected officers: John Neuhaus of the University of California at San Francisco, who will become chair-elect; Madhu Mazumdar of Weill Cornell Medical College, who will be the section program chair for JSM 2014; and Susan Shortreed of Group Health Research Institute, who will be secretary/treasurer.
