About ExIStA

The Exeter Initiative for Statistics and its Applications (ExIStA) is the region's centre for statistical expertise. Initial support is being provided by a development fund award from Bridging the Gaps, led by Professor Steve Brooks. ExIStA aims to bring together statisticians working in the University and within local public and private sector organisations and to foster and promote inter-disciplinary statistical activity. The Initiative also aims to raise awareness of the use and value of statistical methods and to support statisticians in continuing to develop and apply their skills.
