MRC Biostatistics Armitage Lecture series

Created: 2016-03-18 09:30
Institution: MRC Biostatistics Unit
Description: The Armitage Lecture is named to honour the immense contributions of Professor Peter Armitage CBE who was at the Unit from 1947 to 1961, and whose work is recognised throughout the world as achieving a successful balance between methodological rigour and applied commonsense, to which all statisticians aspire.

BSU established the Armitage Lectures in October 2003. The Lectures honour the work of an outstanding medical statistician.

Every year in late autumn an internationally established senior researcher is invited to spend a week in the Unit giving seminars and hosting informal discussions to give an opportunity to learn about the work of the Unit and build collaborations. The Armitage Lecture itself is the centrepiece around which a full-day workshop is built. We are honoured that Professor Armitage has been a regular attendee at BSU events.
