报告简介：In this talk, I will introduce statistics from two perspectives: statistics as a profession and statistics as an intellectual discipline. From the point of statistics as a profession, I will talk about who are statisticians, who employ statisticians, and what statisticians do, etc.; from the perspective of statistics as an intellectual discipline, I will briefly review the history of statistics. At the end of the presentation, I will talk about some of my research in optimal plate design in high throughput screening experiments.
