Professional Interests: Almost all of my research activity has involved the application of advanced statistical techniques to the design and analysis of both experimental and observational studies. Particular interests include methods for covariate selection in both clinical trials and observational studies and techniques for assessing the impact of unmeasured but potentially confounding covariates. I actively participate in the design, methodology, and analysis of large multi-center trials and I have been an integral member in the writing of nationally funded grants. Recent interest has been in designing methods for sample surveys with applications to tobacco prevention projects for adolescents, cluster designed studies to measure the impact of the built environment on obesity, and a randomized clinical trial to enhance preventive care screening in an ethnically diverse group of elderly women.
