Overview

The NISS Virtual New Researchers Conference is your chance to present the work you are passionate about—whether it’s your own original research, an important paper you’ve studied, or a review of recent developments in your field. This is a welcoming and supportive environment designed specifically for early-career researchers, including graduate students and advanced undergraduates.

Whether you're preparing for your first professional presentation or getting ready for a bigger stage, this conference is also a great opportunity to practice and refine your presentation skills ahead of the ASA Joint Statistical Meetings in Nashville, TN later this year.

Hosted by the NISS New Researchers Network, this half-day virtual event encourages participants to share ideas, receive feedback, and connect with a network of peers and mentors from across the NISS Affiliate community.

New Researcher Presentations

Participants will present oral presentations at this conference within the following categories:

• • Original Research (their own research work),
  • Literature Research (presentation of a published paper that is not authored by the presenter), or
  • Literature Review (presentation on recent developments in an area -- this would be a chance to present a couple of papers to highlight recent developments in an area of interest.)

Selected oral presentations will involve a 15 minute live presentation.

(Full agenda coming soon!)
