The Founders of Statistics Prize for Contemporary Research Contributions is given in honor of the Founders of Statistics. It recognizes a research contribution that has had profound influence on statistical theory, methodology, practice, or applications.
The contribution must be a research article or book published within the last three decades. The prize is given biennially, at the ISI World Statistics Congress (WSC). It comprises a cash award of 5,000 euros, and the winner presents the Founders of Statistics Prize Lecture at the WSC. If the contribution has multiple authors, the cash prize will be divided equally. The WSC 2021 will be a virtual congress and no travel support will therefore be provided. Complimentary registration fee is part of the prize.
The ISI is grateful to Elsevier Publishers for sponsoring the prize.
