Welcome
 
Joint Invitation
We are pleased to invite you to the XXIInd International Biometric Conference (IBC 2004) in parallel with the Australian Statistical Conference (ASC 2004).

This event is being held jointly by the International Biometric Society and the Statistical Society of Australia on 11 - 16 July 2004 at the Cairns Convention Centre, Queensland, Australia.

It is expected that the joint conference will attract over 700 delegates and include eminent international speakers, leading researchers and participants from both Australia and overseas. Delegates will be able to attend sessions of either conference, ensuring a rich and varied scientific program.

Cairns has been chosen as the venue as it is the central hub of beautiful North Queensland and an array of social events and tours will be arranged to take advantage of this.

We look forward to seeing you in July 2004!
