The Virginia Chapter of the American Statistical Association is excited to announce its annual meeting, which will take place at Virginia Tech, Blacksburg, VA, on Friday, September 26, 2025. We are honored to have Dr. Lily Wang, Professor of Statistics at The George Mason University, as our keynote speaker. We are currently accepting abstracts for consideration of oral and poster presentations, which will also be held during the plenary session. Abstracts may focus on current and novel topics in statistics, biostatistics, genomics, bioinformatics or other related fields. ASA and Chapter members, industry professionals, academic faculty, and both undergraduate and graduate students within the Commonwealth of Virginia are especially encouraged to submit an abstract, though all are welcome to attend.
