Distinguished Lecture Series

Purpose & Plan

The primary purpose of the series is to reach out to, encourage and inspire young professionals globally. The IBS Education Committee is charged with selecting presenters whose research and work in the field highlight an interesting application, or a new methodology or development in biometrics, biostatistics or biomathematics. The committee seeks presenters of wide interest among members and, though not required, it is ideal when early career professionals working in the field (within 10 years of PhD completion) can be featured. 

IBS members may register for each Distinguished Lecture Series webinar free of charge. They may also view previous sessions online. To see previously-recorded Distinguished Lecture Series sessions, visit the Video Sessions page.
