ABSTRACT

A two-way live connection involving give-and-take between teaching and research makes me feel very excited as a teacher every day at the real prospect of becoming more effective in a classroom. I may add that some of my recent research on statistical inference and related topics has tended to originate largely from teaching. In turn, such research energizes my role as a teacher. In this presentation, I will highlight a number of such interesting problems along with their often unassuming origins. In doing so, I will touch upon Student’s t-distributions, multivariate normality, as well as sufficiency, ancillarity, and Basu’s example.
