My research is focused on statistical methods for epidemiological studies which deal with
studying factors  affecting the health and illness of populations, and serves as the foundat-
ion and logic of interventions made in the interest of public health and preventive medicine.
The research is geared to develop novel statistical techniques for handling measurement
error in the major variable of interest, and to handle subjects with partially missing infor-
mation. The developed statistical techniques rely on  parametric, semiparametric, and nonparametric
approaches for flexible and robust modeling.
 

Research interest: Errors in covariate, Missing data, Survival analysis, and Bayesian methods.
