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,
- discussion of data-management problems,
- reviews of analytical issues, or
- surveys or critiques of Stata facilities in specific fields.
Please email the scientific organizers before
May 31, 2009, 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).
The meeting will include the usual “Wishes and grumbles” session,
during which you may air your thoughts to Stata developers, and (at additional
cost) the option of an informal meal at a London restaurant on Thursday
evening.
The program will be announced in June 2009.
Registration
Timberlake Consultants generously sponsors registration fee waivers for
presentations (only one fee waiver per presentation, regardless of number of
authors involved). They will also pay a small fee to a presenter of a longer
review or tutorial paper.

The scientific organizers
look forward to hearing from you with presentation offers or to discuss
the suitability of a potential contribution. Confirmation of the program,
cost, and venue, and details of how to register, will be circulated in June
2009.
By British standards, London is usually relatively dry and warm in September.
Please send submissions to the scientific organizers before May 31, 2009.
