Journal of Agricultural, Biological and Environmental Statistics - New JABES Editor-in-Chief Announcement
The Journal of Agricultural, Biological and Environmental Statistics is delighted to announce the appointment of Dr. Jorge Mateu as its new Editor-in-Chief.
Dr. Jorge Mateu earned a bachelor's degree in 1992 from the University of Valencia (Spain) in Mathematics and Statistics, and completed his PhD in Statistics in 1998 from the same university under the supervision of Peter Diggle (Lancaster University, UK) and Francisco Montes (UV, Spain). Dr. Mateu is currently full professor of Statistics with the Department of Mathematics at University Jaume I of Castellon (Spain). He has long expertise in the field of stochastic processes in their wide sense, with a particular focus on spatial and spatio-temporal point processes, but also on geostatistics and areal spatial data. His research lies at the intersection of statistics, computational sciences and natural and social sciences with a wide focus on Data Science. Large projects in crime data analysis and public health, where combination of statistical methods and machine learning methods are at the core of the approach, are currently taking most of the time of his research group.
Mateu became an elected member of the International Statistical Institute in 2004, and Fellow of the Royal Statistical Society in 2016. He has published more than 250 papers in peer-reviewed international journals, and has organised several international conferences with a focus on modelling space-time processes. He currently sits on the editorial boards of JABES (as EiC), and Spatial Statistics, and Environmetrics, amongst others as AE.
"I would like to introduce myself as the new editor of the Journal of Agricultural, Biological, and Environmental Statistics (JABES) and welcome my team of associate editors. I am delighted to work for this lively journal with an exciting present and future impacting on the statistical and subject matter fields."
