Dear Colleagues, I am pleased to announce the Fourth Meeting of the Eastern Mediterranean Region of the International Biometric Society (EMR-IBS). The meeting will be held at the Hilton Hotel, Eilat, Israel, on January 23-25, 2007, with a pre-conference reception on the evening of January 22. The conference will include three full days of sessions, the first of which will be a special one-day symposium in honor of Marvin Zelen on the occasion of his 80th birthday. A slate of distinguished invited speakers has been lined up for the conference, and we look forward to a very stimulating meeting. For more information or to submit an abstract, see http://www.congress.co.il/emr-ibs2007/ . I encourage you all to participate in this conference. I also would be grateful if you would spread the word about the conference to as many of your colleagues as you can, by word of mouth and email. Those wishing a hard copy of the poster to hang up on their department bulletin board should feel free to ask, and I will be glad to supply one (until I run out). A PDF version of the conference poster is available for download at my personal webpage http://pluto.mscc.huji.ac.il/~mszucker (click on Information on EMR-IBS 2007 Conference, and you will arrive at the section of the webpage from which the PDF poster can be downloaded). I hope to see you and your colleagues at the conference. With regards, David Zucker David M. Zucker Department of Statistics, Hebrew University Mt.
