Now that the invited sessions have been selected by the scientific committee of ISBA²⁴ (with both sessions in which I am involved, Bayesian data privacy and The future of ISBA conferences, accepted), the call is open for contributed talks, with deadline 17 November. (If  this helps in making a proposal, childcare will be available during the conference.)
