Our exceptional skills in mathematics, statistics and data management provide a strong background for work that is often used for strategic decision making purposes. Our reputation has been built on our ability to provide workable solutions to difficult problems across all industries. The strength of Data Analysis Australia lies in our flexible approach to integrating the above areas of expertise to provide cost effective and applicable solutions for clients. Company NewsWe are proud to announce that Professor Cheryl Praeger, a director at Data Analysis Australia, has been named Western Australia’s 2009 Scientist of the Year. Cheryl is the Winthrop Professor of Mathematics at UWA and is Australia's most highly cited pure mathematician. Cheryl is also known internationally for her research into group theory, algebraic graph theory and combinatorics.
Science and Innovation Minister Troy Buswell, who announced the awards, said that Professor Praeger’s work had resulted in findings that have led to new thought being adopted by mathematicians worldwide. Professor Praeger thanked her colleagues and was thrilled that this award had brought mathematics to the forefront. In January, Dr John Henstridge was the keynote speaker at the Third International Statistics Conference organised by the Applied Statistics Association of Sri Lanka (ASASL), in Colombo. John spoke on the use of statistical models in assessing risks in finance and energy planning. If you would like to view John's presentation, please visit our Presentations page. Data Analysis Australia strongly supports the promotion of statistics to undergraduates and recent graduates by offering work experience placements, giving students the opportunity to be involved in real world projects. Our first students for 2010 were Alexandra Pearce from the University of Tasmania and Sylvia Soltyk from Curtin University, who we hope gained valuable insight by being shown the variety of work offered in a commercial statistical company. Data Analysis Australia would like to welcome and introduce our two newest Consultant Statisticians, Mai Tanimoto Yuichi graduated from Edith Cowan University with majors in Mathematics and Physics and has recently completed a Masters Degree in Mathematics. Yuichi gained experience in geostatistics, mathematical and statistical modelling and analysis of various data through his studies. Data Analysis Australia is proud to have sponsored the WA Junior Mathematics Olympiad held at UWA at the end of October 2009. The Olympiad is a WA high school competition with teams of four students (Year 9 or below) representing their schools. The aim of the competition is to identify the most gifted students in Mathematics. This year a record number of students entered the Olympiad with more than 340 participants. The enthusiasm of the students was matched by the remarkable achievements by the winners.
