Faculty Profile
Mousumi Banerjee, PhD
- Anant M. Kshirsagar Collegiate Research Professor of Biostatistics
- Research Professor, Global Public Health
- Director, Global StatCore
- Director of Biostatistics, Pediatric Cardiac Critical Care Consortium (PC4) Analytic Center
Mousumi Banerjee is Anant M. Kshirsagar Collegiate Research Professor, Department
of Biostatistics; Research Professor, Global Public Health, University of Michigan
School of Public Health (UM-SPH); Faculty Affiliate, Michigan Institute for Data Science
(MIDAS), University of Michigan (UM). She is also a member of the UM Rogel Cancer
Center, the Institute for Healthcare Policy and Innovation, and the Center for Global
Health Equity. Dr. Banerjee serves as Director of Biostatistics, Pediatric Cardiac
Critical Care Consortium (PC4) Analytic Center, a federally funded multi-institution
collaborative committed to improving the quality of care for patients with critical
pediatric and congenital cardiovascular disease in North America. She is also Director
of Global StatCore, an initiative intended to enhance biostatistical support of global
public health research, education, and training at UM-SPH, and in collaboration with
international partners across the globe.
Dr. Banerjee received her Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees in Statistics from the Indian
Statistical Institute in Kolkata, India and her PhD in Statistics from the University
of Wisconsin-Madison. Her methodological research focuses on predictive modeling,
machine learning, causal inference, correlated data, survival analyses, and competing
risks with primary applications to health services and outcomes research. She studies
health disparities and fundamental issues related to optimal quality and equitable
care delivery in the population. Dr. Banerjee works closely with collaborators in
the fields of cancer, pediatric heart disease, neurology, surgery, and social determinants
of health. She is a Fellow of the American Statistical Association, and an elected
member of the International Statistical Institute..

Research Interests:
I have broad interests and expertise in developing statistical methodology and applying
it in biomedical research, particularly cancer and pediatric heart disease. My methodological
research focuses on predictive modeling, machine learning, causal inference, correlated
data, survival analysis, and competing risks, with applications to health services
and outcomes research.
Research Projects:
I study fundamental issues related to cancer care delivery and outcomes in the population,
using national registries such as the SEER and National Cancer Database (NCDB), claims
data such as Medicare and Optum, and the linked SEER-Medicare database. Since 2016,
I have been engaged in developing statistical methods for quality assessment to drive
quality improvement initiatives within the Pediatric Cardiac Critical Care Consortium
(PC4), a multi-institutional quality collaborative for children with critical cardiovascular
disease.
