Lifetime Data Science (LiDS) Is Newest ASA Section

摘要

The ASA Section on Lifetime Data Science (LiDS) is the latest to be voted in by the Council of Sections. The objective of the section is to promote and support the development, application, and appropriate use of statistical methods for the design and analysis of studies of life history processes. This includes supporting the development of new methods, identifying new areas of application, and fostering interdisciplinary research in areas such as biomedicine, finance, economics, imaging, engineering, genomics, and genetics. In pursuing these objectives, the LiDS executive committee and membership will work closely with other ASA sections.
