摘要

Driven by our mission, we have advanced science for the public good. Our history is rich in theory, methodology, and applications that are instrumental in solving real-world problems. Our reach is boundless, and our impact is undeniable in diverse areas, including engineering, economics, the environment, genetics, public health, and health policy. As the data landscape continues to evolve, our leadership, expertise and knowledge will be essential to meet the global challenges of the future. We must boldly embody our mission of promoting the practice and profession of statistics. In this talk, I will highlight our mission in action as we strive to be a community that uses statistical thinking to drive discovery and inform decisions. This article summarizes the 2023 presidential speech given at the JSM in Toronto.
