RSS 2018 International Conference

RSS 2018 International Conference


The RSS International Conference has established itself as the only conference in the UK for anyone interested in statistics and data science.

Every year, over 600 statisticians and data scientists gather from all sectors and from over 30 countries to share information and network, attracted by a varied programme of talks and workshops.

The 2018 conference will, once again, be organised by ‘streams’ allowing in-depth focus on specialised topics as well as broader presentations on new developments and thinking in statistics.

Greg S. Garrett, GAIN’s Food Policy & Financing Director, will be presenting on food fortification and biofortification. His presentation will include an overview of where these two population-based interventions have been delivered; what scale, coverage and impact has been achieved through these strategies to date; and a summary of the primary research and programmatic gaps moving forward. The presentation will also aim to unpack some of the emerging complementarities between large-scale food fortification and biofortification
