  • Robustness of statistical methods
  • Statistical inference in mixed linear models
  • Design and analysis of experiments, including optimality and comparison of linear experiments
  • Applications of matrix methods in statistics
  • Small area estimation models
  • Ordered statistics
  • Statistics in applications
  • Model selection methods
  • Matrix-variate distributions
  • Copulas

The program will feature invited lectures, special sessions, and sessions for contributed talks and posters.
