The '''Joint Statistical Meetings''' (JSM) is a [[professional conference]]/[[academic conference]] for [[statistician]]s held annually every year since 1840 (usually in August). Billed as "the largest gathering of statisticians held in North America", JSM has attracted over 5000 participants in recent years. Five statistical societies are designated as official JSM partners:
* the [[American Statistical Association]]
* the [[Institute of Mathematical Statistics]]
* two regions of the [[International Biometric Society]]
** the Eastern North American Region
** the Western North American Region
* the [[Statistical Society of Canada]]

In addition to committee meetings, JSM activities include
* a [[career placement]] service
* [[continuing education]] courses
* [[oral presentation]]s
* [[panel session]]s
* [[plenary session]]s
* [[poster session]]s

JSM 2008 was held on August 3-7 at the [[Colorado Convention Center]] in [[Denver, Colorado]]. JSM 2009 will be held in [[Washington, D.C.]] on August 1-6, 2009.
