<p><span>The <a target="_blank" href="https://www.amstat.org/meetings/jsm/2016/">JSM conference</a> in Chicago, July 31 thru August 4, 2016, is one of the largest to be found on statistics, with many terrific talks for R users. We’ve listed some of the sessions that we’re particularly excited about below. These include talks from RStudio employees, like Hadley Wickham, Yihui Xie, Mine Cetinkaya-Rundel, Garrett Grolemund, and Joe Cheng, but also include a bunch of other talks about R that we think look interesting.</span></p>
<p><span>When you’re not in one of the sessions below, please visit us in the exhibition area, booth #126-128. We’ll have copies of all our <a target="_blank" href="https://www.rstudio.com/resources/cheatsheets/">cheat sheets</a> and <a target="_blank" href="https://www.rstudio.com/about/gear/">stickers</a>, and it’s a great place to learn about the other stuff we’ve been working on lately:  from <a target="_blank" href="http://spark.rstudio.com/">Sparklyr</a> and <a target="_blank" href="http://rmarkdown.rstudio.com/r_notebooks.html">R Markdown Notebooks</a> to the latest in <a target="_blank" href="https://www.rstudio.com/products/rstudio-server-pro/">RStudio Server Pro</a>, <a target="_blank" href="https://www.rstudio.com/products/shiny-server-pro/">Shiny Server Pro</a>, <a target="_blank" href="https://www.rstudio.com/products/shinyapps/">shinyapps.io</a>, <a target="_blank" href="https://www.rstudio.com/products/connect/">RStudio Connect (beta)</a> and <a target="_blank" href="https://www.rstudio.com/about/news-events/">more</a>!</span></p>
<p><span>Another great place to chat with people interested in R is the Statistical Computing and Graphics Mixer at 6pm on Monday in the Hilton Stevens Salon A4. It’s advertised as a business meeting in the program, but don’t let that put you off – it’s open to all.</span></p>
