Who needs a statistician in the 21st Century?
This talk will explore, through anecdote and example, the changing role of
the statistician over the last 40 years - and will debate the view that the
professional statistician has no relevance to today's scientific and
industrial needs.
Followed by the AGM of the Edinburgh Local Group.
