www.niss.org Motivation 1990 IMS Report Domain knowledge and statistical theory and methods are inseparable. The continued health of statistics depends strongly on continuing cross-disciplinary research in many fields. Close collaborations among statisticians and scientists push forward the frontiers. Constrained resources and existing infrastructure within academia, government and industry thwart growth and development of the needed cross-disciplinary (and cross-sector) research.
