Hello everyone, my name is Yusi Fang. I recently obtained my PhD degree in Biostatistics at School of Public Health, University of Pittsburgh under the guidance of Dr. George C. Tseng and Dr. Zhao Ren. During my PhD studies, I am also a graduate student researcher under the guidance of Dr. Anda M. Vlad at Magee-Women’s Research Institute. Prior to attending the PhD program, I received my B.S. in Mathematics and Applied Mathematics at School of Mathematical Sciences, Xiamen University.

My research interest lies in developing and applying statistical methods to solve real biomedical problems. My methodological research spans meta-analysis of heterogeneous signals, large-scale inference, high-dimensional mediation analysis, and unsupervised learning for omics study. On the application side, I have collaborated with researchers in the fields of cancer and psychiatry to analyze a broad range of genomic (e.g., RNAseq data) and clinical (e.g., cancer registry) data.
