Research Interests

My primary research interests are currently focused in the areas of biomarker and neuroimaging data.  I am currently working on statistical methods to analyze biomarker data that is truncated due to the sensitivity of the assay for measuring the biomarker.  I have been working on the development of statistical methods where either the outcome or covariate in a given model is subject to left censoring.

I also work in the area of imaging with a focus on neuroimaging.  I am working on the development of methods that will enhance the implementation of dimension reduction methods for the analysis of neuroimaging data.  I am also working on the development of decision rules for detection of disease in an image.
