RESEARCH INTERESTS
|
- As a biostatistician, my research is focused on applied statistical methodology resulting from public health oriented collaborations.
- My applied methodological research is centered on causal inference research and applied methods for comparative effectiveness research (CER), especially in propensity score related causal inference research and meta-analysis.
- Other research areas include: extending modern statistical design and analysis for evaluating personalized medicine (traditional chinese medicine), tolerance intervals, GLM, survival analysis, and longitudinal binary data.
- Current collaborative research areas include post-marketing safety study and comparative effectiveness research, gerontology and aging studies, and mother/infant health (two vulnerable sub-populations in public health studies), personalized medicine (traditional chinese medicine), and environmental health.
