As a result, potential solutions to this problem have become highly interdisciplinary. Notwithstanding, statistics and data science have become paramount in the quest for providing evidentiary based answers to a host of scientific problems associated with this novel virus. Among these problems are the issues of vaccine development, development of therapeutics, testing, contract tracing, forecasting, and inferential analysis. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n The effects of the virus have varied greatly from country to country reflecting differences in data reporting, public health infrastructure, politics, economics, social contexts and the role of civil society.\u00a0 <\/span>This session will discuss specific statistical issues related to the COVID-19 pandemic and will bring together prominent researchers who will share their experiences from Israel to India to the US. <\/span><\/p>\n \n SPEAKERS:<\/p>\n Danny Pfeffermann<\/strong> <\/span> Bhramar Mukherjee<\/strong> <\/span> Daniel Diaz<\/strong> Jeffrey S.
