Faculty and research interests

Research Interests: Developing and evaluating statistical methods for handling missing data, for assessing nonignorable selection bias, and for group-randomized trials.

Research Interests: My research is at the intersection of applied, computational, and methodological statistics, motivated by the analysis of complex data. I have been mostly working on Bayesian modeling and methods, with a focus on Bayesian nonparametrics, models for latent variables, and model assessment.

Research Interests: Statistical image analysis, statistical shape analysis, medical imaging, functional data analysis, computational statistics

Research Interests: Statistical Genomics and Bioinformatics; High-Dimensional Data Analysis; Model Uncertainty and Selection; Bayesian Statistics; Monte Carlo and MCMC Methods

Research Interests: My research focuses on statistical inference in complex networks, including their multi-layer and dynamic variants. I aim to develop computationally feasible model based as well as spectral and matrix factorization based methods to analyze networks. I am also interested in the analysis of neuroimaging data obtained from both functional MRI and in-vivo Calcium imaging and much of my current research is motivated by such applications.
