The Young Statisticians Section of the Royal Statistical Society and Significance magazine are hosting another writing competition to promote statistics, and the winning article will be published in Significance and online. Also, three finalists will win a one-day registration to the Royal Statistical Society International Conference in Manchester, UK, this year.
Articles should be interesting, easy to read, and 1,500–2,500 words long. Technical terms and mathematics must be kept to a minimum; however, articles can include tables, figures, images, and photographs. Readers should finish your article knowing more about statistics or the application of statistics than they did before.
Students or graduates within the first 10 years of their statistics careers are eligible to submit entries by May 28. Details and submission guidelines are on the Significance website.
Significance is published by the Royal Statistical Society and American Statistical Association. Primarily a general interest magazine for statisticians, users of statistics, and all those interested in statistics, it is for anyone interested in statistics and the analysis and interpretation of data.
