The National Institute of Statistical Sciences (NISS) is a national organization that works on issues related to information and quantitative analysis. The goal of the NISS New Researchers Network is to create connections among undergraduate and graduate students from different academic institutions and early-career professionals within the NISS Affiliates Program. The network fosters collaboration and support among early-career statisticians, graduate students and undergraduate students offering resources and opportunities for professional growth. Activities include: NISS Capstone Projects; NISS Writing Workshop; NISS Virtual Career Fairs; NISS Graduate Student Research Conference; and the Undergraduate Student Guide to Grad School Virtual Series.

For graduate students, activities are organized to help new researchers tackle challenges of graduate programs and help with their future careers. Students can share their experiences regarding their programs or an internship they did. In this network you will be able to attend events specifically geared towards graduate students that are studying statistics, biostatistics and data science. For early-career researchers, this network provides an opportunity to connect with peers and mentors, share insights, and learn from others’ experiences. NISS organizes specialized workshops and seminars to help you navigate the transition from academia to industry or continue your research journey. Whether you are preparing for your first job, postdoctoral position, or advancing in your field, this community is designed to support you throughout your career path.
