This month, David Corliss shares some of the Data for Good events happening at JSM 2023. You won’t want to miss these.

With the COVID-19 pandemic phase winding down, now is the time to act on what we have learned from this crisis—the Stats4Good top challenge in biostatistics for 2023.

Data for Good makes the world a safer place through statistical science, and the Committee on Scientific Freedom and Human Rights makes the world a safer place for statisticians engaged in this work.

It’s April, the flowers are blooming, and the birds are singing, so it must be time for Stats4Good’s annual list of Earth Day project ideas.

David Corliss uncovers how science is not enough. Data for Good needs directors just as much as data, advocates as well as algorithms, and socializing the work in addition to the science.

Learning to avoid sources of bias and quantifying and minimizing its impact allow the realization of the promise of machine learning and artificial intelligence to benefit all, David Corliss says.

David Corliss starts the year off with a challenge list that shines a light on exciting new opportunities and is meant to encourage the D4G community to tackle overlooked or under-resourced concerns.

David Corliss reports on the many accomplishments the Data for Good community achieved in 2022 and looks forward to events in the upcoming year.

Statistics Without Borders—an ASA outreach group—has high-impact projects, volunteer recruiting, development, support, expertly managed projects, and excellent data for good resources.

Susan Ellenberg—emerita professor of statistics, medical ethics, and health policy at the University of Pennsylvania—was honored for her substantial contributions to the statistical profession and to society in general.
