Emanuela Dreassi is a Full Professor of Statistics at the University of Florence, where she currently serves as Director of the Department of Statistics, Computer Science, and Applications 'G. Parenti' (DiSIA) from November 1, 2024, to October 31, 2028. She is affiliated with the School of Economics and Management and has held various institutional roles including Director of the Bachelor's Program in Statistics (2014-2022) and Vice-President of the School of Economics and Management (2019-2022).
Her research spans hierarchical Bayesian models and spatial statistics, with methodological advancements in specifying and estimating models for multilevel data, missing data, and latent variable models. She has made significant contributions to robust analysis in small area estimation, compatibility of conditional distributions, semicontinuous data modeling, Bayesian predictive inference, and knockoffs construction. Her work bridges theoretical statistics with practical applications in epidemiology, environmental studies, and medical research.
Dreassi's recent publications (2020-2025) reveal a strong focus on methodological innovations in Bayesian statistics, spatial analysis, and knockoff filters for variable selection. She has published extensively in top statistical journals while also collaborating on interdisciplinary research in medical fields including plastic surgery and epidemiology. Her work demonstrates a consistent trajectory of advancing statistical methodology while maintaining strong connections to real-world applications across multiple domains.
As an active referee for numerous prestigious journals including Biometrics, Journal of the Royal Statistical Society, and Statistics in Medicine, Dreassi contributes significantly to the scholarly community. She has coordinated research units for PRIN and HORIZON2020 projects and participated in numerous national and international conferences as organizer, scientific committee member, and session chair.
