The 60th Summer Research Conference (SRC) and Statistics Undergraduate Research Experience (SURE) will be held in Jekyll Island, Georgia on June 9-11, 2025. The Southern Regional Council on Statistics (SRCOS) is a consortium of statistics and biostatistics programs from universities in 16 states in the Southern region. The SRC is an annual conference sponsored by the SRCOS. The purpose of the SRC is to encourage the interchange and mutual understanding of current research ideas in statistics and biostatistics, and to provide motivation and direction to further research progress. The SRC will give new researchers an opportunity to participate in the meeting and to interact closely with leaders in the field in a manner not possible at larger meetings. In addition to the graduate student participation, the 60th SRC will also include the 6th annual Statistical Undergraduate Research Experience (SURE) from June 9-11, 2025. SURE is a conference within a conference aimed to encourage the participation of undergraduate students to pursue graduate education and career opportunities in STEM fields. SURE will include events specifically for undergraduate students and undergraduate mentors, such as a panel about career opportunities in statistics, a real data analytics workshop, and a speed-mentoring session with current statistics and biostatistics graduate students.
