Research & Interests
My main research is in the area of developing statistical methods for the analysis of clinical trials and epidemiologic studies in which the time to an event is a primary outcome. I have worked in nonparametric regression, model selection, nonparametric and semiparametric likelihood ratio based inference, two-sample problems, and bootstrap for censored, truncated, and biased data. Recently I have been studying resampling methods in nonparametric censored regression. I have also been working on semiparametric estimation of survival probabilities for incomplete cross-sectional data which arise frequently in prevalent cohort studies.
