Greetings,
February is upon us! If you've not had the chance, please note that
you can still book a space for the Radical Statistics conference to be
held on Friday, February 24th 2012 at the British Library Conference
Centre, followed by a half-day interactive workshop and AGM on
Saturday 25th.
Don't miss our challenging and engaging programme with talks on:
- Measuring health ? history and methods
- Deception in medical research ? scientific and regulatory failure
- Deception in financial statistics ? how this contributes to financial mayhem
Speakers: Roy Carr-Hill, Val Saunders, Dr Aubrey Blumsohn, Prof.
David Healy, Prof. Prem Sikka, Ann Pettifor, Prof. Allyson Pollock &
Howard Reed.
Both days will provide a great opportunity to learn and discuss how
misleading statistics are used to bolster political preferences and
how difficult issues can be demystified with clear statistics.
All interested in research and statistics are welcome ? the conference
is neither technical nor limited to professional researchers.
Please find the programme and related information at
www.radstats.org.uk/conf2012, where you can make your booking now!
