About Us

The American Statistical Association is the world’s largest community of statisticians. The ASA supports excellence in the development, application, and dissemination of statistical science through meetings, publications, membership services, education, accreditation, and advocacy. Our members serve in industry, government, and academia in more than 90 countries, advancing research and promoting sound statistical practice to inform public policy and improve human welfare.
STATtr@k is a website produced by the American Statistical Association (ASA) for individuals who are in a statistics program, recently graduated from a statistics program, or who recently entered the job world.

Based on the monthly column in Amstat News, the ASA’s membership magazine, STATtr@k offers material to individuals who will eventually call themselves statisticians and data analysts.

New articles will appear here monthly, but check in daily to view the latest news and announcements.

If you have an idea for an article or an announcement you would like see on this website, email Amstat News Managing Editor, Megan Murphy, at megan@amstat.org. Information about how to submit an article can be found on our submit an article page.
