Draft Workshop Program
You can find a draft program from the pre-conference workshops here.
Satellite Decision Making Symposium
The University of Sydney's School of Public Health will be holding a satellite symposium on Friday 18th November focusing on practical issues around decision making with Bayesian networks and causal models. Although a key motivator of the symposium is to better understand decision making in clinical and health policy settings, the discussions will be of a general nature. Further details, including how to register, will be provided closer to the event.
Travel Grants
ABNMS is offering four travel grants to attend the ABNMS2022 Tutorials and Conference. Awards will be for $500 to contribute to the costs of travel to and from the conference. Grants will be awarded to students and new members of ABNMS who will be presenting and have not attended an ABNMS conference in the past. Existing members who will be presenting at the conference may also be eligible depending on grant availability.
Applications for grants should include a brief statement indicating the type of grant being applied for (student travel, new member travel or existing member travel), justifying the application, along with an estimate of travel costs, a scanned signed statement from an academic supervisor verifying student status (if in application for one of the student travel grants), and a CV. An abstract of the talk to be presented at the conference must be submitted in parallel (see above). Student travel grants will only be awarded if the recipient registers for the conference and tutorials; registration for tutorials is optional for other grantees.
Travel grant applications must be submitted by email to president@abnms.org by 31 August 2022.
