Dear colleagues, sorry for duplications. Please post the enclosed announcement of CLAPEM and forward to potentially interested students and researchers. Best regards, Pablo Ferrari 10 CLAPEM Latin American Congress of Probability and Mathematical Statistics Lima, February 25 to March 3, 2007 First Announcement The CLAPEM is the main event for Latin American Probability and Statistics. It occurs every two/three years and attracts researchers and students from the most important centers in the region. It was already organized in Venezuela, Uruguay, México, Brasil, Chile, Argentina and Cuba. This year the CLAPEM will be realized in Peru as a contribution to the formation of a research group in the area in this Country. The program includes courses, talks and thematic sessions. One of the courses by Jim Ramsay about statistical analysis of functional data. The talks cover different areas of Statistics and Probability with an emphasis in the areas developed in Latin America. Invited speakers David Brillinger (Berkeley) Antonio Cuevas (Madrid) David Cox (London)* Roberto Fernandez (Rouen) Montserrat Fuentes (North Carolina) Nancy Garcia (Campinas) Mathisca de Gunst (Amsterdam)* Olle Haggstrom (Chalmers) * Wilfrid Kendall (Warwick) Jim Ramsay (McGill) Alexandra Schmidt (Rio de Janeiro) (* to be confirmed) Thematic Sessions Statistical Mechanics and Probability.
