Research Abstract

My research interests lie in developing and applying statistical and computational methods to analysis of correlated and high-dimensional biomedical data. Such data arise in longitudinal and familial studies, and genomic and proteomic studies. I am interested in observational studies such as case-control and cohort studies. My current interests center around analysis of high-dimensional genomic and protenomic data especially in population-based studies,, biomaker identification, and gene-environment interactions, especially in cancer epidemiology and cancer prevention and intervention.
