New methodology for spatio-temporal applications in ecology and environmental sciences. Approximate statistical inference for large data sets and/or complex models. My students and I make up the Toyon Statistical Lab (https://toyonstatlab.github.io/).
Assistant Professor, Animal & Comparative Biomedical Sciences
Multidisciplinary approach to study the dynamics of zoonotic infectious diseases. We develop computational, mathematical and data-driven models to understand the ecology and evolution of infectious diseases at the wildlife, livestock and human interface.
Our research is motivated by the threads that climate change imposes on the agricultural and natural plant ecosystem. Therefore, we develop imaging and simulation approaches to understand the function of natural variation in plants
Associate Professor, Epidemiology and Biostatistics
Dr. Lin has worked extensively on statistical methods for meta-analysis, network meta-analysis of multiple-treatment comparisons, publication bias, and Bayesian methods. He is also interested in the applications of statistical methods to real-world proble
Assistant Research Professor, R Ken Coit College of Pharmacy
Statistical genetics and genomics, including computational methods for analyzing large-scale sequencing data, rare variant association analysis, genomics-driven drug target discovery and precision medicine
Assistant Professor of Systems and Industrial Engineering
Research is focused on the design, analysis, and implementation of stochastic approximation methods for solving convex optimization and stochastic variational inequality problems with applications in machine learning, game theory, and power systems.
