Dr. Katerina Kechris, Professor of Biostatistics and Informatics, has been elected a 2019 Fellow of the American Statistical Association (ASA) . The American Statistical Association is the world’s largest community of statisticians, that supports excellence in the development, application, and dissemination of statistical science. 

This is a very prestigious honor, as ASA rules only allow for 3% of the current membership to have Fellow status at any point in time.  

Katerina will be recognized for her contributions to high-dimensional biological data analysis, team science, and training and mentoring of students.  She will be recognized at an awards ceremony at the Joint Statistical Meetings in Denver.   

Please join us in congratulating Katerina on this tremendous honor and recognition, which is also a broader recognition of our department.
