Dorota Maria Dabrowska is a Polish statistician known for applying nonparametric statistics and semiparametric models to counting processes and survival analysis. Dabrowska's estimator, from her paper "Kaplan–Meier estimate on the plane" ( Annals of Statistics, 1988) is a widely used tool for bivariate survival under random censoring. [1]
Dąbrowska earned a master's degree in mathematics from the University of Warsaw. She completed her Ph.D. in statistics in 1984 at the University of California, Berkeley. [2] Her dissertation, supervised by Kjell Doksum, was Rank Tests for Independence for Bivariate Censored Data. [3]
After completing her doctorate, she joined the faculty at the University of California, Los Angeles, where she is a professor of biostatistics and statistics. [2] At UCLA, she made fundamental contributions to the estimation and asymptotic theory in semi-Markov and Markov renewal models. [4]
As well as being a researcher in statistics, Dabrowska is also one of the translators of an influential 1923 paper on randomized experiments by Jerzy Neyman, originally written in Polish. [5]
Dabrowska is a Fellow of the Institute of Mathematical Statistics. [6]
