The meeting will focus on innovative statistical approaches to the design and analysis of epidemiological surveys. Its aim is to gather epidemiologists and biostatisticians in order to favour exchanges between them and to contribute to the spreading of recent methods or models still rarely used in epidemiology in spite of their usefulness. The programme will include invited conferences, contributed oral sessions and contributed posters. Epidemiologists and biostatisticians are expected to propose talks which will deal either with methods (presentation, illustration, comparisons…) or problems to which epidemiologists are looking for solutions.
