This book commemorates the scientific contributions of
distinguished statistician, Andrei Yakovlev. It reflects upon Dr.
Yakovlev's many research interests including stochastic modeling
and the analysis of micro-array data, and throughout the book it
emphasizes applications of the theory in biology, medicine and
public health. The contributions to this volume are divided into
two parts. Part A consists of original research articles, which can
be roughly grouped into four thematic areas: (i) branching
processes, especially as models for cell kinetics, (ii) multiple
testing issues as they arise in the analysis of biologic data,
(iii) applications of mathematical models and of new inferential
techniques in epidemiology, and (iv) contributions to statistical
methodology, with an emphasis on the modeling and analysis of
survival time data. Part B consists of methodological research
reported as a short communication, ending with some personal
reflections on research fields associated with Andrei and on his
approach to science. The Appendix contains an abbreviated vitae and
a list of Andrei's publications, complete as far as we know. The
contributions in this book are written by Dr. Yakovlev's
collaborators and notable statisticians including former presidents
of the Institute of Mathematical Statistics and of the Statistics
Section of the AAAS. Dr. Yakovlev's research appeared in four books
and almost 200 scientific papers, in mathematics, statistics,
biomathematics and biology journals. Ultimately this book offers a
tribute to Dr. Yakovlev's work and recognizes the legacy of his
contributions in the biostatistics community.
