I am a Professor in the Department of Biostatistics at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health. These days, I'm working in environmental biostatistics, researching the health effects of air pollution and climate change. Generally speaking, I'm interested in statistical methods for spatial-temporal data. Occasionally, I like to try my hand at writing software.
