Synopsis
The 4th UK user group meeting took place at the Royal Statistical
Society in London on 15 May. Ana Timberlake of Timberlake Consultants
organised all the logistics and I arranged the programme.
About 60 people attended, and we were pleased to welcome Vince Wiggins
from StataCorp. There were 6 papers, one economic, one geographic,
one of general interest, and the rest biostatistical. There was also a
session for shorter contributions of about 10 minutes each. Abstracts
of the papers are posted below or on
www.timberlake.co.uk.
Speakers names and email
addresses are included, and anyone interested in obtaining a copy of a
particular ado is invited to contact the appropriate speaker.
The meeting ended with a short presentation by Vince Wiggins, in which
he described the areas he and other people at StataCorp are working
in. There was then an open discussion.
