The London meeting is the longest-running series of Stata user meetings.
The meeting is open to all interested. In past years participants were from
Britain, Ireland, other European countries, the United States, and
Australia. StataCorp will be represented.
Presentation topics might include
- discussion of user-written Stata programs,
- case studies of research or teaching using Stata,
- discussions of data management problems,
- reviews of analytical issues, and
- surveys or critiques of Stata facilities in specific fields.
Please email the scientific organizers
if you are interested, indicating whether you wish to give
- a 20-minute talk (followed by a 10-minute discussion),
- a 10-minute talk (followed by a 5-minute discussion), or
- a longer review or tutorial (about an hour).
Contact the scientific organizers
if you have questions regarding the suitability of a potential contribution.
The meeting will include the usual “Wishes and grumbles” session,
at which you may air your thoughts to Stata developers, and (at additional
cost) the option of an informal meal at a London restaurant on Monday
evening.
The program will be announced later.
