The Van Dantzig Award

Van Dantzig Award 2010

Once in every 5 years the VVS presents the Van Dantzig Award. The next presentation will take place during the lustrum of the VVS in 2010. The award is in memory of prof. dr. D. van Dantzig, the founder of Dutch mathematical statistics.

The Van Dantzig Award will be presented to a colleague who on January 1, 2010, is not older than 40 years and who during the past 5 years has made an exceptional contribution --- either theoretical, or practical--- to our specialty. Previous recipients of the Van Dantzig Award are Van Zwet (1970), Van Meurs (1975), Hordijk (1980), Rinnooy Kan (1985), Gill (1990), and Ridder (1995), Van der Vaart (2000), Borst and Van der Laan (2005).

The board of the VVS has set up a jury for the Van Dantzig Award 2000 and requests members of the VVS to suggest candidates for recipients of the award to the chairman or any other member of the jury. The jury is chaired by prof. dr. W.R. van Zwet (email vanzwet@wi.leidenuniv.nl); a complete lit of all jury members is given below.
