Education and career
Pigeot was born in 1960, in Wanne-Eickel, a town in northwestern Germany that in 1975 became incorporated into Herne, North Rhine-Westphalia.[3] She earned a diploma in statistics and sociology at the Technical University of Dortmund in 1985.[1] She completed her Ph.D. there in 1989, with the dissertation Schätzer des gemeinsamen Odds Ratios in geschichteten Kontingenztafeln [Estimator of the joint odds ratio in stratified contingency tables] supervised by Ursula Gather.[4] She received a habilitation in 1993.[1]
