OverviewStatistics Graduate Student Research Day is an annual student initiative supported by the Department of Statistics, University of Toronto, the Statistics Graduate Student Union and the Fields Institute.The theme this year is "Statistics in Networks". Statistical methods are regularly used to analyze network arising in computer science (ex: social networks), biology (ex: disease spread), and other fields. In addition, it is hoped that this theme will attract a wide audience from several disciplines and the community at large, supporting the goals of the International Year of Statistics.
