I'm very pleased to share that, as of today, I have joined the Department of Statistics at the Alma Mater Studiorum - University of Bologna Università di Bologna as a Full Professor of Statistics! 😀 😀 😀

I was delighted to give the keynote address at the Mini-Symposium of the Statistical Computing Section of ASA, “Statistical Inference with Model Uncertainty”, on work with Anupreet Porwal: youtube.com/watch?v=KH-DbI…, starting at 7:30.

I finally decided to leave X. Too much spam, disinformation, clickbait, crypto bros, political snark, bots, and ads. This is not what used to be. See you on Luca Hammer-scr.bsky.social #Bluesky
