Announcement and Call for Papers
---------------------------------
We would like to announce the 6th German Stata Users' Group Meeting to
be held at the WZB Berlin (Wissenschaftszentrum Berlin für
Sozialforschung, http://www.wzb.eu) on Friday, 27th June 2008. We would
like to invite everybody from anywhere who is interested in using Stata
to attend this meeting.
Presentations are sought on topics that include:
o User written Stata programs,
o Case studies of research or teaching using Stata,
o discussions of data management problems,
o reviews of analytical issues,
o surveys or critiques of Stata facilities in specific fields, etc.
The conference language will be English due to the international nature
of the meeting and the participation of non German guest speakers. (See
http://www.stata.com/support/meeting for the proceedings of other user
group meetings.)
If you are interested in presenting a paper, please submit an abstract
(max 200 words) by email to one of the organizers. The deadline for
submissions is 30th March 2008. Presentations should be about 20 min. or
shorter.
The academic program of the meeting is being organized by Johannes
Giesecke
([email protected]) and Ulrich Kohler ([email protected]).
Participants are asked to travel at their own expense. There will be a
small conference fee to cover costs for coffee, teas, and luncheons.
There will also be an optional informal meal at a restaurant in Berlin
on Friday evening at additional cost.
The logistics are being organized by Dittrich and Partner
(http://www.dpc.de), the distributor of Stata in several countries
including Germany, The Netherlands, Austria, Czech Republic, and
Hungary. You can enroll by contacting Anke Mrosek ([email protected])
