Congratulations to Francesca Dominici, Clarence James Gamble Professor of Biostatistics, Population and Data Science and Co-Director of the Harvard Data Science Initiative, who was selected as the 2020 recipient of the prestigious Karl E. Peace Award for Outstanding Statistical Contributions for the Betterment of Society from the American Statistical Association.
Dr. Dominici was selected in part “for her high-quality, innovative, and policy-relevant science, for her commitment to transparency and reproducibility in science, and for her work in developing statistical methods for evaluating health effects of exposure to air pollution.”
Established in 2012, the Karl E. Peace Award for Outstanding Statistical Contributions for the Betterment of Society recognizes statisticians who have made substantial contributions to the statistical profession and to society in general. The award is typically presented at the ASA President’s Address and Founders and Fellows Recognition at the Joint Statistical Meetings.
