Overview
On December 31st, 2001 David Andrews retired from the University of
Toronto. This wonderful individual will be honoured in a special way
on May 23rd, 24th and 25th of 2002, immediately before the annual meeting
of the Statistical Society of Canada. On May 23rd and 24th, 2002 a two
day workshop is planned to be held at the Fields Institute followed
by a short course in Microarray Data Analysis on May 25th. David has
a keen interest in statistical genetics and has been extremely supportive
of the genetics group at The University of Toronto. The shortcourse
being held in concert with the workshop is designed to introduce statisticians
and other researchers to the design and analysis of high-dimensional
gene expression studies.
