Program announcement
The seventh German Stata Users Group meeting will be held on Friday, June
26, 2009, in Bonn at the Universitätsclub Bonn e.V. We would
like to invite everybody from everywhere who is interested in using Stata to
attend this meeting. The conference language will be English because of the
international nature of the meeting and the participation of non-German
guest speakers.
The meeting will include presentations about graphs, general statistics,
programming, and data management, both by researchers and by StataCorp staff.
The meeting will also include a “wishes and grumbles” session,
during which you may air your thoughts to Stata developers. Finally, there
is (at additional cost) the option of an informal meal at a Bonn restaurant
on Friday evening.
For those traveling from abroad, it may be worth noting that Bonn is not only
the former capital of West Germany, but is also the gateway to the Rhine
gorge, which became a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2002 and which is also
known as “the Romantic Rhine” for its many castles and vineyards
(“Rhine”,
Wikipedia, The Free Encyclopedia).
Details about accommodations and fees are given
below the program.
