Applied statisticians are in high demand to collect, understand, syn-thesize, and present a range of data-including statistics- for real-time and prospective decisions that affect real people. More and more, statisticians are beginning to understand that we live in a world of both uncertainty and probability. The Committee on Applied Statisticians is poised to encourage ASA members to address domestic and global challenges using statistical know-how. The current charge of the committee includes promoting and facilitating forums that disseminate information regarding standard practices and emerging technologies to applied statisticians, promoting the development of high-quality applied statistical activities, promoting the status of applied statisticians within their field of application, and collaborating with other ASA committees/Sections to promote applied statistics.
