The Pip Pattison Award

We are excited to welcome the recipient of the Pip Pattison Award for 2023:

Johan Koskinen is Lecturer in Statistics at Stockholm University, having previously held positions at the universities of Melbourne, Oxford and Linköping. He develops statistical models and inference for social networks and often works in close collaboration with subject area experts to infer underlying network processes for empirical data, preferably within a Bayesian framework. Together with colleagues in Melbourne he edited the 2013 book on Exponential random graph models (Cambridge University Press, 2012), which was awarded the Harrison White Book Award. He has contributed to the publicly available programs MPNet and RSiena, and has been active in delivering training in network analysis across the world. Of particular interest to him is imperfectly observed network data and computational methods for networks on different types of ties and nodes, in space and across time.
