We’re excited to announce that our Professor Ruben Zamar has been named as a Fellow in the Institute of Mathematical Sciences (IMS). Ruben is one of only 41 recipients from around the world who were honoured with this prestigious award this year.
The citation of Ruben’s award reads: For fundamental contributions in Robust Statistics, introducing the Min-max bias estimates, cell contamination in High Dimensional data, and many other useful procedures for robust estimation in Multivariate data.
Congratulations, Ruben!
About the IMS Fellowship
Giving guidance on how to choose who to nominate to be a Fellow of the IMS, past Chair of the Committee on Fellows Philip Protter notes that one should look for a leader in research and in the community (leadership that can be demonstrated in many ways), as well as someone who has produced work that is “of exceptionally high quality.”
