Building Bridges: Probability, Statistics and Applications

In the International Year of Statistics 2013, the aim of this conference is to bring together a wide range of researchers working in various different but also strongly interconnected fields of probability, statistics and their applications. We also take the opportunity of this conference to celebrate the 60th birthday of Claudia Klüppelberg and her numerous scientific achievements which show how important it is to look at theory and applications in probability and statistics.
