| AS2020 | Elizabeth Gross, Vishesh Karwa, and I organized the AS2020 - an international conference on Algebraic Statistics in Hawaii, summer 2020. However, due to the novel coronavirus pandemic, we have postponed the conference to May 2021. To keep the community connected, Hawaii hosted a few of the talks online in June 2020.

| SI(AG)^2 | Jesus De Loera, Despina Stasi, and I organized a Minisymposium on Random Commutative Algebra at the 2017 SIAM Activity Group on Algebraic Geometry (SI(AG)^2) Conference in Atlanta, August 2017. [Session schedule.] | |
| *Networks@iit2017 | Alessandro Rinaldo (Carnegie Mellon statistics) and I organized a Workshop on Algebraic Statistics for Network Modeling at IIT. The workshop, which took place in Chicago on May 8-11, 2017, honored the legacy that Steve Fienberg left on the field of algebraic statistics for networks. Participation is by invitation only.
Participants: Elizabeth Gross (San Jose State), Vishesh Karwa (Harvard), Nicolas Kim (Carnegie Mellon-student), Debdeep Pati (Florida State / Texas A&M), Sonja Petrovic (IIT), Mateja Raic (UIC-student), Alessandro Rinaldo (Carnegie Mellon), William Schwartz (IIT-student), Despina Stasi (IIT), Nanwei Wang (Carnegie Mellon), Dane Wilburne (IIT-student).
