Billard The proposal requests support for fifteen U.S-based individuals from academic and nonprofit institutions to participate in the International Biometric Conference to be held in Amsterdam Netherlands on July 1-5, 1996. This is the biennial meeting of the International Biometric Society. About one-third of those supported will be those with an official capacity and two-thirds will be new researchers, especially those traditionally underrepresented groups such as women and minorities.
