The General Assembly 2023 The Bernoulli Society General Assembly has been scheduled for Tuesday, July 18, 2023, from 17:50 till 18:30, during the 64th ISI World Statistics Congress in Ottawa.
Bernoulli Society New Researcher Award 2024 - call for applications The Bernoulli Society welcomes applications to the New Researcher Award 2024. Eligible candidates are active researchers in Probability Theory who obtained the PhD degree on or after April 30th, 2018, and who are regular members of the Bernoulli Society. An extension may be given to those having had disruptions after receiving the PhD, such as parenthood. Diversity among the awardees is one of the Society's goals, and therefore women and members of under-represented groups are particularly encouraged to apply. Candidates should apply through the web form https://forms.gle/3S7sHWMigeE5R48k9 and send the required documents to the e-mail address indicated in the form. The deadline is April 30th, 2023.
Bernoulli Society and Royal Statistical Society David G. Kendall Award for Young Researchers – call for nominations This joint BS and RSS Award is in honor of David G. Kendall, who was the first president of the Bernoulli Society, and was awarded the Guy Medal in Silver (1955) and in Gold (1981) of the RSS. The 2023 edition of the award is organized for young researchers in Mathematical Statistics. Nominees should be researchers with significant achievements and great potential in their research field, who are members of either the Bernoulli Society or the Royal Statistical Society, and who obtained their PhD after January 1st, 2015. The nomination process is open from April 1st and closes on June 30th. The award committee considers nominations and agrees a winner before September 30th. For complete call see: https://www.bernoullisociety.org/news
The winners of Ito Prize 2023 The prize honors the memory and celebrates the legacy of Professor Kiyosi Itô and his seminal contributions to probability theory. It is awarded every two years to the best paper in Stochastic Processes and their Applications published in a period of two years. The winner of Ito Prize 2023 are Alexander Iksanov (Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv, Ukraine) and Andrey Pilipenko (Institute of Mathematics of Ukrainian National Academy of Science & Igor Sikorsky Kyiv Polytechnic Institute, Ukraine) for their paper "On a skew stable Lévy process", published online on 14 November 2022.

Statisticians of all ages and from all regions will meet to exchange ideas and discuss the latest developments in the broad field of statistics and probability theory. The next EMS will be held in Warsaw in July 2023. The deadlines for submission of contributed papers and early bird payment for the European Meeting of Statisticians 2023 to take place July 3-7 in Warsaw, Poland, have been prolonged (till March 31 and May 5, 2023, respectively). See https://ems2023.org/important_dates. 43rd Conference on Stochastic Processes and their Applications (SPA) July 24-28, 2023 SPA Conferences are organised under patronage of the Bernoulli Society and can justifiably be regarded as the most important international scientific meeting on the theory and applications of stochastic processes. They are held annually except for the years when the World Congress in Probability and Statistics takes place. The next conference will be hosted by the Faculty of Sciences of the University of Lisbon. The deadline for submission of contributed papers has been prolonged till April 30, 2023. See https://www.spa2023.org/abstractsubmission.
