I received my Ph.D. in statistics at the Ohio State University. My research lies in the statistical design and modeling of complex computer outputs. This research interest includes Bayesian analysis, statistical learning and data mining, spatial statistics, statistical computing, and experimental design. The result of my research has been applied to pre-clinical studies and biomechanical engineering research at Cornell University hospital for special surgery. I have been working as research assistant, teaching assistant, statistical consultant, and the student co-presidentin the department of statistics at the Ohio State University. I spend most of my free time on sports, reading, traveling, and hanging out with friends.

This website contains some of my research and personal information. You can find my Curriculum Vitae, education background, thesis research materials, and research/teaching/consulting experience, as well as some links related with my work and interest.

Researchexperience

I have been a research assistant for projects in Cornell University --Hospital for Special Surgery since Spring2005.  I design and analyze datasets for many bio-mechanical problems. The main focus is adapting methodologies in my dissertation on modeling andcalibrating the computer experiments to better understand the physicalmechanism of the prosthetic devices.  

 

Teachingexperience

I taught an elementary statistics class (stat 135) in Spring 2007. I was a teaching assistant in thedepartment computer lab from Autumn 2004 to Spring 2005.

 ·Stat 135 (Spring 2007)

 · Computer support of thedepartment of statistics at the Ohio State University (Autumn 2004 – Spring2005)

  

Consulting experience

I worked with Dr. KeithWarren from the school of social work in summer 2004. We compared thelongitudinal data in the Family and School Together(FAST) program with the data in another program to diagnose theirstatistically significant discrepancy.
