Research Interests

My group's research interests focus on biomathematical approaches to analyzing molecular sequence data, longitudinal modeling of biomedical processes, and examining the patient-physician relationship.

Projects

  1. Bayesian model selection in phylogenetics
  2. Recombination detection
  3. Simultaneous inference of alignment and phylogeny
  4. Hierarchical phylogenetic models for intrahost viral evolution
  5. Statistical frameworks for testing hypotheses of genomic evolution
  6. Hierarchical state-space models for hormonal time-series
  7. Statistical tests for supra-diurnal association between hormones
  8. Physicians' knowledge and attitudes towards genetic testing
  9. Physicians' knowledge of toxicology
