The Prize Committee of ISBA is pleased to open the call for submissions for the 2026 Lindley Prize. The prize is awarded for innovative research in Bayesian statistics. Papers must have been presented at the ISBA 2026 World Meeting in Nagoya, Japan and submitted to Bayesian Analysis (BA) by September 30, 2026. Submissions are welcome from any presenter (invited or contributed, oral or poster).

Submissions should be made electronically at https://projecteuclid.org/authors/euclid.ba

When submitting your paper to BA, please indicate in your cover letter that it is submitted for the Lindley Prize and include the identification number of the session in which the work was presented.

Authors who have already submitted their paper to BA without indicating the Lindley Prize can still have it considered for the prize, provided the paper was presented in Nagoya. In this case, please notify me at igor@unibocconi.it by the deadline and include the session identification number.
