The first Greek Stata Conference will take place on 28 January 2027 in Athens. There will also be an optional workshop on 29 January.
The conference provides researchers with an opportunity to exchange both new community-contributed commands and tips and tricks developed for Stata, discover new applications highlighting Stata 19’s potential capabilities for applied research, meet Stata users working in different disciplinary areas, and interact directly with statisticians from StataCorp.
The scientific committee is particularly looking for the following:
The conference will feature a dedicated poster session aimed at PhD students and early-career researchers. This session provides an opportunity to present ongoing work, preliminary results, or innovative applications of Stata in a more informal and interactive setting.
For examples of past presentations, view the proceedings page.
If you are interested in presenting, submit your abstract to the scientific committee. Include a short, informative title, your name, affiliation, and phone number. If your presentation has multiple authors, please identify the presenter.
Presentations are normally 20 minutes long and followed by 10 minutes of discussion. Longer presentations are also welcome, however, we ask that authors indicate the additional time required.
Presentations for the “Tips and Tricks” session can range from 5 to 25 minutes.
The deadline for submissions is 1 November 2026.

This course aims to provide participants with the fundamental Stata programming toolkit to facilitate, automate, replicate and personalize data analysis, management, and presentation. Session I reviews some general Stata commands, illustrating how they can be combined with some powerful Stata programming constructs for looping and branching. The course then focuses on how the programming concepts of macros, loops, and branching can be implemented to effectively write, modify, and develop do-files (community-contributed Stata programs).
It is expected that individuals wishing to follow this course have a sound working knowledge of Stata. However, participants are not required to have any programming experience in Stata or in other statistical packages.
