My area of research is statistics. The area of statistics that particularly interests me is the modeling and assessment of longitudinal data. I have collaborated as a co-investigator and statistician on a number of research projects with either intramural or extramural funding in the health sciences, many of which have targeted regimen adherence using multiple modes of monitoring.
In addition to functioning as a faculty statistician to the researchers in the School of Nursing, I am the Director of the Center for Research and Education in the School of Nursing. Currently, I am a co-investigator and statistician on a number of NIH-funded R01-level projects. I am also the leader of the Statistics Core for a longstanding NHLBI-funded program project (P01) in the Departments of Psychiatry and Psychology at the University of Pittsburgh and a co-investigator and senior statistician in the Translation Core for a NINR-funded P01 in the School of Nursing.
