Specific Research Interests

I have diverse interests in statistics and machine learning. My current research focuses on problems of high dimensional nonparametric estimation, variable selection, inference, and graph property testing. In addition to my theoretical interests, I am also interested in statistical applications in medical settings such as electronic medical records (EMRs) and personalized medicine.
