Research Experience
- Served as the Editor-in-Chief of Bayesian Analysis from January 2022 until January 2025. He is an Associate Editor of the Journal of Productivity Analysis, Econometrics & Statistics, and the Central European Journal of Economic Modelling and Econometrics. Previously, he was Editor of Bayesian Analysis (2010-2019) and Associate Editor of the Journal of Econometrics (2010-2013), the Journal of the Royal Statistical Society, Series B (2003-2007), the Journal of Business and Economic Statistics (2000-2006), and of Econometric Theory (1994-2005). He has had various roles in the International Society for Bayesian Analysis (ISBA) and the Royal Statistical Society. He is Chair-Elect of the Objective Bayes section of ISBA for 2026-27. He was Head of the Statistics Department at Warwick from September 2014 until September 2018.
Background
- Interested in theoretical and applied Bayesian statistics, particularly distribution theory, Bayesian model averaging, spatial statistics, non- and semiparametric inference, survival models, stochastic frontier models, contingent valuation, and stochastic volatility models. Part of his interests stem from his background in economics.
