Hi all -

I wanted to share a message putting TWO upcoming awards on your radar. These are jointly sponsored by the Graphics and Computing sections of the American Statistical Association (ASA): 

The student Paper Award. Full details here: https://community.amstat.org/jointscsg-section/awards/student-paper-competition 
All application materials MUST BE RECEIVED by 5:00 PM EST, Thursday, December 15, 2023. The submission window will be open on December 1, 2023. They will be reviewed by the Student Paper Competition Award committee of the Statistical Computing and Graphics Sections. The selection criteria used by the committee will include innovation and significance of the contribution as well as the professional quality of the manuscript. Award announcements will be made by January 15, 2024. 

John M. Chambers Statistical Software Award. Full details here: https://community.amstat.org/jointscsg-section/awards/john-m-chambers
All application materials MUST BE RECEIVED by 5:00 PM EST, Thursday, December 15, 2023. The submission window will be open at http://asa.stat.uconn.edu <http://asa.stat.uconn.edu/> on December 1, 2023. The entries will be judged on a variety of dimensions, including the importance and relevance for statistical practice of the tasks performed by the software, ease of use, clarity of description, elegance and availability for use by the statistical community. Preference will be given to those entries that are grounded in software design rather than calculation. Award announcements will be made by January 15, 2024.

I am chairing the awards process (and one of the committees) this term and would be happy to answer any questions. Thanks!

Philip Waggoner
