(NSF) Statistics Program

NSF seeks applications for the Statistics Program to support research in statistical theory and methods, including research in statistical methods for applications to any domain of science and engineering. Recent awards have ranged from $10,000 to $932,000. NSF said statistical theory forms the base for statistical science, while the methods are used for stochastic modeling and the collection, analysis and interpretation of data. The methods characterize uncertainty in the data and facilitate advancement in science. The program encourages proposals ranging from single-investigator projects to interdisciplinary team projects.
