Hi Everyone,
This summer, the Detroit Section of the American Chemical Society will host it's Central Region Meeting at The Henry in Dearborn, Mi. For the ACS, the Central Region includes Michigan, Ohio, Indiana, and parts of Pennsylvania, West Virginia and Kentucky.
I am looking to get 8-10 volunteers to give a presentation on the use of sound statistical methods in a lab. Even though this is a chemistry meeting, I'm open to any chemistry related field, biology, environmental science, physics, materials science, etc. I'm particularly interested in the use of Designed Experiments and Gage R&R studies.
I've worked as a chemist for about a decade before I changed to statistics. I've run many designed experiments in the labs I have worked in and done some QC beyond the typical, "Between the lines" methods most of those labs used. I'm hoping that there are some people out there, other than myself and a couple other I know, who can come in and talk about the work they did and what they found and if it followed with theory or proved something new. I've been trying to preach the benefits of DOE for a long time. I'm hoping that someone else can help me out.
I have 2-3 speakers lined up already. If I get more than 10, I can live with that too.
