Joseph P. Romano is a distinguished Professor of Statistics and Economics at Stanford University, where he has been on the faculty since 1986. He holds joint appointments in both the Department of Statistics and the Department of Economics, reflecting his interdisciplinary research that bridges statistical theory with economic applications. Romano has established himself as a leading scholar in mathematical statistics with significant contributions to econometrics, climate science, and multiple testing methodologies. Ph.D. in Statistics, University of California, Berkeley (1986) M.S. in Statistics, University of California, Berkeley (1983) A.B. in Statistics, Princeton University (1982), Summa Cum Laude Romano's research focuses on the theoretical foundations and practical applications of statistical methods, particularly in nonparametric statistics, bootstrap and resampling techniques, and multiple testing procedures. His work addresses the challenges of analyzing massive datasets with complex structures, such as those found in biotechnology, clinical trials, and econometrics. He has developed universal statistical tools applicable across diverse fields including climate science, genetics, finance, and education. His recent work emphasizes methods for multiple testing and multivariate inference driven by the availability of massive datasets, where he tackles issues like unknown dependence structures, heterogeneity, and high dimensionality. Analysis of Romano's recent publications reveals a consistent focus on developing robust statistical methodologies for complex data structures. His work spans theoretical advances in U-statistics with growing dimensions, practical applications in seroprevalence studies, and innovative approaches to ranking inference across various domains. The interdisciplinary nature of his research is evident in publications spanning economics journals, statistics journals, and even behavioral science preprints, demonstrating the broad applicability of his methodological contributions. 2021 LGBTQ+ Scientist of the Year, Out to Innovate Fellow, International Association of Applied Econometrics (2020) Fellow, Institute of Mathematical Statistics Presidential Young Investigator Award, National Science Foundation The Canadian Journal of Statistics Award Romano has mentored dozens of doctoral students throughout his career at Stanford, serving as dissertation advisor, co-advisor, and committee member for numerous PhD candidates in Statistics. His research has been consistently supported by National Science Foundation grants, including recent funding for computer-intensive inference with applications to social sciences (2020-2023) and randomization inference for contemporary statistical problems (2013-2016). He has served in various administrative roles at Stanford including Associate Chairman and Chair of Committee on Faculty Affairs. Beyond his academic pursuits, Romano is actively involved in the 500 Queer Scientists visibility campaign and maintains a balanced life with passions in music (having performed at Carnegie Hall), competitive tennis (ranked nationally in his age group), cooking, and architecture.
