I am an associate professor in the Department of Statistics and Data Sciences (College of Natural Sciences) and in the Department of Women’s Health (Dell Medical School). My research focuses on development of Bayesian methods for causal inference in complex observational studies. Specific areas of statistical methods development include methods for causal inference with interference, intermediate variables (mediation analysis, principal stratification), confounding in high dimensions, model uncertainty/model averaging, treatment effect heterogeneity,…
My methodological research interest lies in causal inference, dynamic treatment regimes, sequential multiple assignment randomized trials, comparative effectiveness studies using electronic health records, instrumental variable analyses, high-dimensional data analysis, post selection inference, and survival analysis. Particularly, I am interested in methodologies that lead to constructing the optimal sequence of treatments in chronic diseases where patients are monitored and treated throughout their life. Thus far, I have been primarily motivated by…
Ph.D.,1999, Department of Statistics, University of Florence, Italy The area of my research interest focuses on the health consequences of exposure to air pollutants and climate change, and environmental health disparities. My research interests are shaped by my background and training in both epidemiology and statistics, by developing and applying statistical methods for epidemiological investigations. My work has contributed substantially to our understanding of air pollution and climate change-mediated health…
