Statistics Research Funding Request for
Proposals
The Acheson J. Duncan Fund for the
Advancement of Research in Statistics requests proposals
for small grants to support research
projects in statistics, probability and stochastic
processes. The fund was created in 1997 by an
endowment established by professor emeritus Acheson Duncan
at the time of his death. Duncan was a
pioneer in research and application of quality control and
industrial statistics.
Faculty and students throughout Hopkins are eligible
to apply for funding for collaborative
projects with a member of the faculty in the Applied Mathematics and
Statistics Department. Most
grants will be less than $5,000. Among the items eligible
to be funded are travel to research
conferences and workshops, computer equipment and software,
matching funds for grant proposals,
short-term visits of collaborators to Hopkins,
interdepartmental seminars, partial support for
research assistants and seed money for new research.
Proposals should be brief, preferably no more than
three single-sided pages; provide itemized
expense estimates; and be signed by each investigator.
Proposals may be submitted at any time to
committee chair John Wierman, Applied Mathematics and
Statistics Department, 302 Whitehead
Hall.
