Abstract

In celebration of Professor Ron Doney's 80th birthday, we provide a summary of his academic career and contributions to probability theory, as one of the UK's leading probabilists for over 50 years. A version of this note also serves as an introductory article to the volume in honor of Ron Doney [Birkhäuser, 2021], which includes an additional 17 research papers produced by Ron's colleagues and friends.
