My name is Haolin (Leo) Li, and I am an Assistant Professor of Biostatistics at the Boston University School of Public Health and an Adjunct Assistant Professor of Biostatistics at UNC Gillings School of Global Public Health.

My areas of expertise include survival analysis, clinical trials, epidemiological studies, machine learning, and precision health. Broadly, my research develops statistical and machine learning methods for complex data in biomedical and public health studies. More specifically, my current work focuses on:

• Methods for studies with outcome-dependent sampling designs

• Design and analysis of precision medicine clinical trials

• Methods for complex survey and structured data

In addition to methodological development, I collaborate extensively on interdisciplinary research across diverse areas of biomedical science and disease applications.

I am always glad to hear from motivated doctoral, master’s, and undergraduate students interested in these areas. While space in my group is limited, prospective students are welcome to reach out by email at haolinli@bu.edu. To help me assess potential fit, please include your CV and transcripts from all previously attended institutions.
