Call for Proposals for Invited Sessions

Section on Statistics in Marketing
Joint Statistical Meetings (JSM) 2015
Seattle, Washington – August 9-13, 2015

Deadline for submission: September 4, 2014, at 11:59pm Eastern time.

The Program Committee for the 2015 Joint Statistical Meetings (JSM) is now accepting proposals for invited sessions for the Section on Statistics in Marketing. JSM will be held in Seattle, August 9-13, 2015.

A typical invited session consists of four speakers, and may include a discussant (this is fewer speakers than in topic-contributed or contributed sessions). Invited panels are also welcome. Each session lasts 110 minutes, leaving plenty of time for longer talks and floor discussion. We welcome sessions that include presentations by researchers in academia, industry or government.

The general Call for Proposals is available at:

http://www.amstat.org/meetings/jsm/2015/invitedsessions.cfm

You may submit your Invited Session proposal online at that link. A strong session proposal is one that lists a topic, session description, a list of proposed speakers, and a short description of each talk. At this time, full abstracts are not required. When asked for the classification, please submit your proposal for “Competition."

The deadline for proposal submissions is September 4, 2014.

If you have any questions, please contact me at braunm@smu.edu
