DESCRIPTION:Stein’s paradox is one of the most striking results in Stati
 stics. Although it appears to be a toy problem in mathematical statistics\
 , it turns out to have profound implications for the analysis of modern\, 
 high-dimensional data. I will describe both the result and some of its con
 sequences.
