The National Institute of Statistical Sciences (NISS) is an American institute that researches statistical science and quantitative analysis.
History
In 1985, the National Science Foundation funded a proposal by the Institute of Mathematical Statistics (IMS) to assess the status of cross-disciplinary statistical research and to make recommendations for its future. The IMS formed a panel consisted of twelve members from statistics, pure and applied mathematics, chemistry, engineering, computer science, and public affairs, including Ingram Olkin (Co-Chair), Jerome Sacks (Co-Chair), Alfred Blumstein, Amos Eddy, Bill Eddy, Peter C. Jurs, William Kruskal, Thomas Kutz, Gary C. McDonald, Ronald Peierls, Paul Shaman, and William Spurgeon. In 1990, the panel published a report on Cross-Disciplinary Research in the Statistical Sciences that led to the founding of the National Institute of Statistical Sciences.
The National Institute of Statistical Sciences was established in 1990 and located in Research Triangle Park, North Carolina by the American Statistical Association, the International Biometric Society, the Institute of Mathematical Statistics, Duke University, North Carolina State University, and the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and RTI International (formerly Research Triangle Institute). Dan Horvitz of RTI became the interim director. Jerome Sacks became the founding director in 1991. Alan F. Karr joined NISS as the associate director in 1992 and became the director in 2000. Nell Sedransk appointed as the associate director in 2005 and became the director in 2015. James L. Rosenberger became the director of NISS in 2017 and served until 2023. David S. Matteson became the director in 2023.
In 1993, the first NISS postdoctoral fellows joined. There are now nearly 80 of former NISS postdoctoral fellows around the world and in various organizations in each sector: academia, government, and industry. Here is a list of notable alumni:
John Aston, Professor of Statistics at the University of Cambridge
Adrian Dobra, Associate Professor at the University of Washington
Shanti Gomatam, Mathematical Statistician at U.S. Food and Drug Administration
Murali Haran, Professor and Head of Statistics at Penn State University
Jiming Jiang, Professor of Statistics at the University of California - Davis
Xiaodong Lin, Associate Professor at Rutgers Business School
Matthias Schonlau, Professor of Statistics at the University of Waterloo
Minge Xie, Professor of Statistics at Rutgers University
Haibo Zhou, Professor of Biostatistics at the University of North Carolina
In 2000, the NISS affiliates program was created to address challenges arising in government and industry. In 2005, the NISS affiliates program was recognized by the American Statistical Association with the Statistical Partnerships among Academia, Industry, and Government (SPAIG) Award.
In 2002, the Statistical and Applied Mathematical Sciences Institute was funded by the National Science Foundation, and it was partnered with Duke University, North Carolina State University, the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, and the National Institute of Statistical Sciences.
From 2011 to 2018, the NISS and Duke University collaborated on the Triangle Census Research Network (TCRN), one of eight research nodes that worked on the National Census Research Network (NCRN). In 2017, the NCRN was recognized by the American Statistical Association with the Statistical Partnerships among Academia, Industry, and Government (SPAIG) Award.

NISS Writing Workshop for Junior Researchers
The Writing Workshop for Junior Researchers in Statistics and Data Science has been organized by the National Institute of Statistical Sciences from 2007 through 2016 and 2018. It has been led by Nell Sedransk and Keith Crank. It is frequently co-sponsored by the American Statistical Association, the Institute of Mathematical Statistics, the Eastern North American Region of the International Biometric Society, the Statistical Society of Canada, the International Chinese Statistical Association, the International Indian Statistical Association, the Korean International Statistics Society, and the National Science Foundation. The writing workshop provides individual hands-on guidance on how to write journal articles and funding proposals for junior researchers in statistics, biostatistics and data science.
