2. Affiliate Involvement 2.1 Background The NISS Affiliates Program and NISS/SAMSI University Affiliates Program are the largest programs of their kind among the DMS-funded mathematical sciences research institutes. NISS director Alan Karr, associate director Nell Sedransk and assistant director Stanley Young have major responsibility for operation of these programs. As a benefit of membership, NISS Affiliates and NISS/SAMSI University Affiliates may receive reimbursement for expenses to attend SAMSI workshops as well as NISS events. Through meetings and other activities, the NISS Affiliates and NISS/SAMSI University Affiliates inform the development of SAMSI programs. NISS Affiliates and NISS/SAMSI Affiliates are listed below: Corporations: Avaya Labs, Basking Ridge, NJ; Aventis Pharmaceuticals, Bridgewater, NJ; Bell Labs–Alcatel/Lucent, Murray Hill, NJ; General Motors, Detroit, MI; GlaxoSmithKline, Research Triangle Park, NC and Collegeville, PA; Ell Lilly, Indianapolis, IN; Merck Research Laboratories, West Point, PA; Metabolon, Inc., Research Triangle Park, NC; MetaMetrics, Inc., Durham, NC; RTI International, Research Triangle Park, NC; SAS Institute, Cary, NC; SPSS, Chicago, IL; Wyeth, Collegeville, PA; Xerox Innovation Group, Webster, NY Government Agencies and National Laboratories: Bureau of the Census,Washington, DC; Bureau of Labor Statistics, Washington, DC; Energy Information Adminstration, Washington, DC; Los Alamos National Laboratory, Los Alamos, NM; National Agricultural Statistics Service, Fairfax, VA; National Cancer Institute, Bethesda, MD; National Center for Education Statistics, Washington, DC; National Center for Health Statistics, Hyattsville, MD; National Security Agency, Ft.
