CURRICULUM VITAE KERRIE MENGERSEN

Brief Resume Mengersen has contributed to fundamental and applied research in Bayesian statistics and related computation over the last decade. Specific methodological interests are in Bayesian statistics, mixture models, hierarchical modelling and meta­analysis. Her applied interests are in biometrics, biostatistics, environmetrics, genetic statistics and control. She is an Accredited Member of the Statistical Society of Australia (2001), an elected Fellow of the Royal Statistical Society (2004) and an elected Fellow of the Institute for Mathematical Sciences (2005). Since 1989, Mengersen has held academic appointments at Bond University (1989­1990), Central Queensland University (1990­1992), Colorado State University (1993), QUT (1994­2001) and the University of Newcastle (Professor and Head of Discipline, 2001­2004). Prior to this she was a commercial statistical consultant for Siromath Pty Ltd (1987­1989). In 2004 she was appointed as a Research Professor in Statistics at QUT and Director of the QUT Science Research Centre, which embraces all of the Faculty’s research. She took up the concurrent position of Associate Dean of Research for the period 2006­2007. Mengersen is a committed teacher, holding a full teaching load (relative to appointment) until 2004. At the University of Newcastle this comprised lecturing five courses per year on average. During her three years there, she also instituted a complete online statistics program, built enrolments in Honours from one in 2000 to six in 2004, and built PhD enrolments from two to nine. Employment from 1989 to 2000 was fractional a various times due to family commitments (three children born 1988­1995). Invited international conference presentations in the past 5 years are as follows: IBC (Ireland, 06/08), MCMSki (Bormio, 01/08; keynote), 9 th Islamic Conference on Statistical Sciences (Kuala Lumpur, 12/07; keynote), IBS (Coffs Harbour, 12/07), O’Bayes ‘07 (Rome, 06/07), IBC (Montreal, 07/07), International Environmental Health Workshop (Brisbane, 11/06), NCAR (Boulder, 11/06), Valencia 8 (Valencia, 06/06; poster), MODSIM (Sydney, 12/05), Cornish Lecture (Adelaide, 07/05; named lecture), NZSA (Dunedin, 07/05), International Workshop on Statistical Modelling (Sydney, 04/05; keynote), IMS/ISBA (Bormio, Italy, 01/05), ISBA (Chile, 09/04), ASC/IBC (Cairns, 07/04), Complex Systems (Melbourne, 11/03), Bayesian Case Studies (Santa Cruz, 08/03), Objective Bayes (Aussois, 06/03), AMS (Plenary Speaker, 09/02), European Meeting of Statisticians (Prague, 09/02) and Valencia 7 (Tenerife, 06/02). In the last five years Mengersen has attracted four three­year large ARC grants (one sole), five three­year ARC Linkage grants (with two Brisbane hospitals, Environmental Protection Agency, Department of Natural Resources and a biotechnology company, Genetic Solutions) and numerous industry and internal research grants. She is also a Program Director for Bayesian Learning in an ARC Centre of Excellence in Complex Dynamic Systems and Control, in collaboration with the University of Newcastle. Mengersen is currently primary supervisor of six PhD students and co­ supervisor of two PhD students, with successful graduations of four PhD and four research Masters students from QUT, two Masters students from Central Queensland University, two PhD students (co­supervised) from Colorado State University and one PhD student from the University of Newcastle to date. Another two PhD students’ theses are under review and two more are due to submit in the next two months.
