Carlos A. Coelho is a Full Professor of Statistics at the Mathematics Department of NOVA School of Science and Technology, NOVA University of Lisbon. He holds a Ph.D. in Biostatistics by The University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, MI, U.S.A., where he was a Fulbrighter. His main area of research is Multivariate Analysis, namely the development of likelihood ratio tests for elaborate covariance structures and for MANOVA models, with elaborate covariance structures, as well as tests for high-dimensionality and the application of Multivariate Analysis techniques to Statistical Disclosure Control problems, complemented with the study of the exact distribution and the development of near-exact distributions for the associated test statistics. Other areas of interest are Mathematical Statistics and Distribution Theory, as well as Estimation, Univariate and Multivariate Linear, Generalized Linear and Mixed Models. Carlos A. Coelho has served in the Editorial Boards of Discussiones Mathematicae—Probability and Statistics, REVSTATStatistical Journal, the Journal of Interdisciplinary Mathematics and the Journal of Applied Statistics and currently serves in the Editorial Boards of the Journal of Statistical Theory and Practice, the American Journal of Mathematical and Management Sciences. He is also Associate Editor of the Springer Book series "Emerging Topics in Statistics and Biostatistics" and a member of the International Council of the "Business World" Library of the Tsenov Academy of Economics (Svishtov, Bulgaria).
