MISG 2010 Melbourne, Australia 7--12 February 2010 This Special Section of the ANZIAM Journal (Electronic Supplement) contains the refereed papers from the 2010 Mathematics and Statistics in Industry Study Group (MISG 2010) held at RMIT University in 7--12 February 2010. The MISG is a special interest meeting of ANZIAM, the Australia and New Zealand Industrial and Applied Mathematics(ANZIAM) division of the Australian Mathematics Society. The MISG meetings take place annually and provide a forum where problems proposed by industry can be worked on intensively, by high profile scientists in the fields of Applied Mathematics, Statistics and Operations Research, from both Australia and New Zealand, along with representatives from the industries proposing the problems. Four problems were presented from diverse industries, with 76 delegates in attendance. All the papers were written by the problem moderators in consultation with the company representatives. The manuscripts were submitted to the editors; Associate Professor John Shepherd, Dr Andrew Stacey and Professor Tony Roberts; and were subsequently refereed by two expert referees. On the advice of the referees manuscripts were accepted for publication, subject to the recommended revisions, and formally approved by the editorial committee.
