2009 Prize Winners
The second annual Manchester Student Prize
ceremony took place on 9th July 2008 at Manchester University.
The standard of the work of all entrants was very commendable and
the winners in particular are to be congratulated but there were no entries in the non-Maths and
Stats stream that were considered to be of sufficient level.
So after much deliberation, the final winners were:
| Maths and Stats Stream |
| Gold |
Anna Fowler |
Lancaster University |
Estimation of AUC Parameters in Pharmacokinetics |
| Silver |
Katrin Moeller |
Sheffield University |
Partial Least Squares Regression |
| Bronze |
Simon Richards |
Sheffield University |
Fisher information and the Cramér-Rao inequality |
We were honoured to have the Society President David Hand to present the prizes
although Katrin was unfortunately not available to receive hers - she was an Erasmus
student.

and retiring Manchester Local Group Chairman Stephan Rudolfer)
