Research Interests

My research interests include super learner, causal inference, missing data analysis, mixed model, and their applications to biomedical and health services research project.

My collaborations are in the area of health services research, including studies in nursing home and hospital quality of care, orthopaedic and CABG surgeries, and community vision care. I have also worked with investigators in other areas, including analgesic clinical trials, biomarker analysis, and psychiatric disorders such as alcohol dependence and bipolar disorder.
