Matias Salibian-Barrera is a full Professor in the Department of Statistics at the University of British Columbia's Faculty of Science, where he leads research in robust statistical methodologies with applications across machine learning, biostatistics, and environmental sciences. His research focuses on developing computationally efficient robust techniques resistant to outliers and model misspecification. Key areas include: Robust regression and inference for high-dimensional data Robust causal inference with complex observational data Robust functional and spatial data analysis Integration of robust methods with deep learning architectures Applications in genomics, climate science, and finance His recent publications demonstrate a strong trend toward unifying robust statistics with modern machine learning, particularly in adversarial settings and high-dimensional inference, while maintaining rigorous theoretical foundations. Notable honors include: CRM–SSC Prize in Statistics Fellow of the American Statistical Association Killam Research Prize Coxeter-James Prize He actively supervises doctoral students and secures major grants from NSERC and CIHR, focusing on robust methods for biomedical and environmental data. His work involves collaborations with UBC's Machine Learning Group and the Pacific Institute for the Mathematical Sciences, where he develops open-source software for robust statistical computing.
