Join us at Warwick Statistics! We are advertising for 5 Assistant Professors (3 in Statistics; 2 in Computational Statistics or Machine Learning) and one Associate Professor. Details at https://warwick.ac.uk/fac/sci/statistics/staff/jobs_vacancies/

Grant-writing question - isn’t it weird / stressful to put all your ideas out there, for a 10% chance to be funded, while at the same time taking the risk that other researchers (intentionally or not) might use these ideas for their own benefit?

(Of course this wouldn’t be a problem if we weren’t all competing with each other.. but we currently are)

Sometimes there’s intention and sometimes it’s just luck (more often than I like to admit). You don’t have to be a good photographer to take good photographs. That’s a big part of my motivation. I’m outside with the birds, and I have my camera. Let’s just see what happens.

But what specifically did you do as graduate student that helped you get to where you are today?

Read the new column by David Smith:

Great news. I can't imagine a higher ROI investment to advance scientific research.

Kudos to the NSF and the Simons Foundation for recognizing the enormous value of what the arXiv provides us all.
