Young-ISA Annual Webinar: The Role of Statisticians in Reproducibility.
Date: Wednesday, April 15th, 2026
Location: Online
Time: 12.00 - 14:30 (Irish time)
Theme of the event: Statisticians in Reproducibility
The Young Statisticians’ Section of the Irish Statistical Association (Young-ISA) was formed in 2019 to create and cultivate a network of young career statisticians across Ireland, supporting their professional development and providing a link to the Irish Statistical Association.
We are thrilled to announce our joint webinar with the British and Irish Region (BIR). The Young-ISA Annual Webinar on the Role of Statisticians in Reproducibility aims to bring together many career-young statisticians in Ireland to focus on the application and theoretical development of statistical ecology.
