JSM Newsroom

Welcome to the newsroom for the 2008 Joint Statistical Meetings, the largest gathering of statisticians in North America. JSM provides members of the press with exclusive access to North America's statisticians who work in the federal government, academia, and industry, including the biopharmaceutical industry. The JSM newsroom was created to provide members of the media with information necessary for covering the upcoming conference.

The 2008 JSM convenes on August 3 and runs through August 7 at the Colorado Convention Center in Denver. JSM is a joint program of the American Statistical Association, the International Biometric Society (ENAR and WNAR), the Institute of Mathematical Statistics, and the Statistical Society of Canada.
