Biostatistician and data scientist with expertise in: Statistical learning. Quantitative imaging. Large-scale oncology datasets to analyze tumor kinetics, categorize data according to RECIST measurements, and establish real-world outcome associations. Tumor growth-rate modeling using the tumor package in R, including the derivation of g-rates and d-rates from high-dimensional longitudinal imaging data. Understanding of the constraints with imputing data and providing a rationale for such imputation allowing additional patient data to be incorporated into downstream analyses without biasing survival or treatment-effect estimates. Human population epidemiology. Applied cancer biostatistics. Supporting clinical and real-world-evidence-based studies. Developing reproducible statistical pipelines in R, implementing survival models and longitudinal tumor kinetics analyses, and applying imaging-based biomarkers to understand treatment response in diverse cancers. Plotting and interpreting clinical data to estimate PFS and OS using Kaplan-Meier estimation, Cox proportional hazards models, and competing-risk or landmark approaches when needed.
