We are pleased to announce that Mikael Jagan has joined the R Core Team. #RStats
He has been an active contributor to the R project for several years, proposing bug fixes and enhancements. Further, he has been co-authoring/maintaining the important Matrix package and more recently lme4 and glmmTMB.
Today marks 50 years since John Chambers and Rick Becker presented a new project to colleagues at Bell Labs - an interactive environment that became the S language.
