Associate Professor of Biostatistics and Bioinformatics
I study how AI can strengthen human judgment in academic and clinical research. My work brings together biostatistics, education, and workforce development to help researchers and institutions develop the skills, validation practices, and governance needed to use AI responsibly. Through Process Provenance, I focus on making AI-assisted work transparent, accountable, and fit for real-world research and learning.
My work sits at the intersection of biostatistics, education, and responsible AI. I help research and learning communities develop the methods, skills, and governance needed to use AI well.
Advancing rigorous approaches to study design, statistical analysis, and evidence communication in clinical and translational research.
Developing practical learning experiences and institutional approaches that help students, researchers, and professionals build durable AI fluency, judgment, and capability.
Establishing validation, governance, and documentation practices that make AI-assisted work transparent, accountable, and credible.
Selected peer-reviewed work on biostatistics, AI-enabled research workflows, and responsible AI use.
