Welcome to the homepage of Section U, the Statistics section of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS). We are one of 24 sections of AAAS.
Section U promotes understanding of statistics by presenting symposia and sponsoring speakers at AAAS meetings, and by encouraging members and their colleagues to present their work in ways that are understandable to other scientists and to the public. Because the study of statistics is highly interdisciplinary, Section U actively seeks to cooperate with other AAAS Sections in planning symposia.
