Boshamer Professor of Biostatistics at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.[2] Academic biographySen was the second of seven siblings; his father, a railway officer, died of leukemia when Sen was ten, and he was raised by his mother, the daughter of a physician.[3] He began his undergraduate studies at Presidency College, Kolkata, initially intending to study medicine but shifting to statistics when it was discovered that he was too young for medical college.[3] He received a B.S. from the University of Calcutta in 1955, an M.Sc. in 1957, and a Ph.D. in 1962;[1][2][3] his doctoral advisor was Hari Kinkar Nandi.[3] He taught for three years at the University of Calcutta and one more year at the University of California, Berkeley before joining the UNC faculty in 1965; although he has held visiting positions at other universities, he has remained at Chapel Hill for the rest of his career.[1][2] He was the founding co-editor of two journals, Sequential Analysis and Statistics and Decisions,[3] and was joint editor-in-chief of the Journal of Statistical Planning and Inference from 1980 to 1983.[1] Research and graduate advisingSen is the author or co-author of multiple books on non-parametric statistics, the advisor of over 80 Ph.D. students, and the author of over 600 research publications.[1][14] He is known for inventing the Hodges–Lehmann estimator independently of and contemporaneously with Hodges and Lehmann[3][4] and for the Theil–Sen estimator, a form of robust regression that fits a line to two-dimensional sample points by choosing the slope of the fit line to be the median of the slopes of the lines through pairs of samples.[5][6] Awards and honorsSen is a fellow of the Institute of Mathematical Statistics[7] and of the American Statistical Association.[8] He became the Cary C. Boshamer Professor in 1982.[1] He was the Lukacs Distinguished Visiting Professor at Bowling Green State University in 1996–1997.[9] In 2002 he won the Gottfried E. Noether Senior Scholar Award of the American Statistical Association,[10] and he was the 2010 winner of the Wilks Memorial Award of the ASA "for outstanding contributions to statistical research, especially in nonparametric statistics and biostatistics; and for exceptional service in mentoring doctoral students."[11] The Government of India awarded him the civilian honour of Padma Shri in 2011.[12] In 2012, the University of Calcutta awarded him an honorary Doctor of Science degree.[13] In 2007, a festschrift was dedicated to him on the occasion of his 70th birthday.[14][15] References1. ^1 2 3 4 5 Curriculum vitae {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110720092739/http://www.sph.unc.edu/images/stories/cv_storage/704289903_cv.pdf |date=20 July 2011 }}, retrieved 2011-07-03. {{Authority control}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Sen, Pranab Kumar}}2. ^1 2 Faculty profile, UNC Chapel Hill, retrieved 2011-07-03. 3. ^{{mathgenealogy|name=Pranab Kumar Sen|id=18736}}. 4. ^{{cite book| last=Lehmann|first=Erich L.|authorlink=Erich Leo Lehmann|title=Nonparametrics: Statistical methods based on ranks|edition=Reprinting of 1988 revision of 1975 Holden-Day | publisher=Springer | location=New York|year=2006|isbn=978-0-387-35212-1|pages=176 and 200–201|mr=395032|ref=harv}} 5. ^{{citation | last1 = Rousseeuw | first1 = Peter J. | author1-link = Peter Rousseeuw | last2 = Leroy | first2 = Annick M. | isbn = 978-0-471-48855-2 | page = 67 | publisher = Wiley | series = Wiley Series in Probability and Mathematical Statistics | title = Robust Regression and Outlier Detection | url = https://books.google.com/books?id=lK9gHXwYnqgC&pg=PA67 | volume = 516 | year = 2003}}. 6. ^{{citation | last = Wilcox | first = Rand R. | contribution = Theil–Sen estimator | isbn = 978-0-387-95157-7 | pages = 207–210 | publisher = Springer-Verlag | title = Fundamentals of Modern Statistical Methods: Substantially Improving Power and Accuracy | url = https://books.google.com/books?id=YSFb4QX2UIoC&pg=PA207 | year = 2001}}. 7. ^IMS Fellows, retrieved 2011-07-03. 8. ^ASA Fellows, retrieved 2011-07-03. 9. ^Bowling Green State University: Eugene Lukacs Professors {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110812062403/http://bayes.bgsu.edu/lukacs/lukacs_profs.html |date=12 August 2011 }}, retrieved 2011-07-03. 10. ^Gottfried E.
