NSF renews SAMSI for five more years

SAMSI, the Statistical and Applied Mathematical Sciences Institute, has received another five years of funding from the National Science Foundation, or NSF. This is the second NSF renewal grant SAMSI has received. The institute, founded in 2002, is one of eight mathematical centers that NSF's Division of Mathematical Sciences funds but it is the only one that focuses on statistics and applied mathematics.  The NSF grant that funds SAMSI is shared among Duke University, North Carolina State University, the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and the National Institute of Statistical Sciences, along with the William Kenan Jr. Institute for Engineering, Technology and Science.
