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

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 registration deadline passed. 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. Although the submission deadlines passed, the registration deadline is July 8th. See https://www.spa2023.org/registration.
23rd European Young Statisticians Meeting (EYSM) September 11-15, 2023 (virtual event) The European Young Statisticians Meetings is a series of conferences that is organized by and for young European statisticians under the auspices of the European Regional Committee of the Bernoulli Society. Participation is by invitation only. ________________________________________ Events sponsored and co-sponsored by Bernoulli Society
Workshop: Sparse Inference on Complex Networks June 26 - June 27, 2023 The workshop is organized by The Bernoulli Society working group on Statistical Network Science and will take place in hybrid mode at the Faculty of Informatics, Università della Svizzera italiana.

XVI Latin American Congress of Probability and Mathematical Statistics (CLAPEM) July 10 – 14, 2023 CLAPEM, promoted by the Latin American Society of Probability and Mathematical Statistics (SLAPEM) and the Latin American Regional Committee of the Bernoulli Society, is the main event in these fields in the region. A traditional program in a CLAPEM includes a series of short courses to introduce graduate students and young colleagues to major areas of current research and a series of invited plenary talks, invited sessions, and general poster and oral communication sessions. The authors of contributed sessions, talks, and posters have to pay the registration fee before June 10, 2023.
64th World Statistics Congress 2023 July 16-20, 2023 The congress series is organized by the International Statistical Institute (ISI) and the Bernoulli Society is participating in the series as an association of ISI. It brings together statisticians and data scientists from academia, health sector and business, junior and senior professionals, in an inviting environment. The regular registration deadline is June 15, 2023 (see https://www.isi2023.org/conferences/ottawa-2023/registration-fees/).
6th IMS Asia Pacific Rim Meeting January 4 – 7, 2024 The Institute of Mathematical Statistics APRM will provide an excellent forum for scientific communications and collaborations for the researchers in Asia and the Pacific Rim, and promote communications and collaborations between the researchers in this area and those from other parts of the world. The program covers a wide range of topics in statistics and probability, presenting recent developments and the state of the art in a variety of modern research topics and in applications Invited session proposals are now being considered.
Bernoulli-IMS 11th World Congress in Probability and Statistics August 12 – 16, 2024 Held every four years, the Congress is a worldwide event covering all branches of statistics and probability.
