Third-year PhD student in Statistics at the Institute of Statistics, Biostatistics and Actuarial Sciences of UCLouvain. Ensiyeh got her Bachelor's and Master's degrees in Statistics from Ferdowsi University of Mashhad, Iran. In her research, she worked on reliability modeling of the degradation systems and her current interest is modeling high-dimensional data and estimation of probabilistic graphical models. Currently, she is working on new methodological aspects for the estimation of probabilistic graphical models to the setting where datasets are stored on distributed computer clusters.
Alexandre is a PhD student and teaching assistant at the Institute of Statistics, Biostatistics and Actuarial Sciences of UCLouvain since 2017. He first obtained a Joint Master Degree in Economics from UCLouvain, UNamur and Bocconi University. He then got a Master in Statistics from UCLouvain. Being trained in Economics and Statistics, he likes to work at the boundary between the two disciplines. His PhD thesis develops a semiparametric regression procedure based on the use of Lorenz curves, the so-called Lorenz regression procedure. The methodology promises interesting applications in the measurement of economic inequality. He is currently developing a penalized version of the Lorenz regression. Jointly supervised with Cédric Heuchenne (main supervisor)
Mengxue is a Ph.D. student at the Institute of Statistics, Biostatistics and Actuarial Sciences of UCLouvain since 2022. She obtained her Master's degree in Statistics from Shandong University, China. Her main research interests lie in modeling of spatio-temporal data, probabilistic graphical models and network analysis. Currently, she is working on modeling and analysis of time-varying brain functional networks. Jointly supervised with Rainer von Sachs (main supervisor).
Lise is a first-year PhD student and a teaching assistant in statistics at the Institute of Statistics, Biostatistics and Actuarial Sciences at UCLouvain. She received her Bachelor's degree in mathematical sciences from the Université libre de Bruxelles, and her Master's degree in Statistics from UCLouvain. In her research, Lise develops inference tools for high-dimensional models. She is currently working on inference for model-averaging estimators based on the desparsified LASSO estimator. Jointly supervised with Rainer von Sachs.

We are in full preparations for the 30th Annual Meeting of the Royal Statistical Society of Belgium .. The website of the conference is here. Looking forward to seing you in Louvain-la-Neuve!.
As part of the open-science paradigme that UCLouvain strongly believes in, I am currently together with other colleagues at UCLouvain, developing the RShiny@UCLouvain platform that will host didactical apps created in Shiny for classroom usage.
