Sharon Xie Lab

Research Mission

Our research group is committed to developing novel statistical methods for study design and data analysis in response to methodological problems that arise in the research of neurodegenerative diseases (e.g., Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, frontotemporal dementia, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis) and in other biomedical research. Our mission is to translate novel statistical methods into real world applications. We collaborate with biomedical researchers by providing expertise in study design and data analysis with a focus on identifying the causes of and cures for neurodegenerative diseases. Our work has been continuously funded by National Institute of Health grants.
