I received my Ph.D. in Statistics from Carnegie Mellon University in 2003 under the direction of Dr. Kathryn Roeder. I am currently Assistant Professor in Statistics at North Carolina State University, which I joined in the fall of 2003. My research interests combine the fields of statistics and genetics and I focus on developing statistical methods that can facilitate genetic epidemiologic research on human complex diseases. Some of my current research projects include statistical modeling of multimarker/haplotype association for genome-wide and candidate-gene studies, gene-based and pathway-based analysis for pharmacogenetics, and SNP genotyping error and quality control.
