Comment: and please close this one quickly. A named chair holder at a major research university (, #5), an editorial board member  Annals of Statistics (probably the number one journal in the discipline), an editorial board member of a bunch of other journals and publications, plus the 2008 COPSS Presidents' Award is plenty enough for passing . In fact, according to his webpage (which seems to be confirmed by the journal's websitehttp://www.imstat.org/aos/contacts.html), starting in 2010 he will move from being an Associate Editor to one of the two Editors of Annals of Statistics. Let me quote from the  COPSS Presidents' Award citationhttp://nisla05.niss.org/copss/PastAwardsPresidents.pdf:''For fundamental and wide-ranging contributions to the mathematics, theory and methods of statistics, including the theory and application of wavelets, block thresholding in wavelet regression, optimality theory, adaptation in nonparametric function estimation, confidence intervals in small samples, and methods for false discovery rate control; for applications to chemical identification, medical imaging and microarray data analysis; and for outstanding contributions to the statistical profession through extensive editorial work and mentorship of students
