Yi Li is a Professor of Biostatistics. His current research interests are survival
analysis, longitudinal and correlated data analysis, measurement error problems, spatial
models and clinical trial designs. His group is developing methodologies for analyzing
large-scale and high-dimensional datasets, with direct applications in observational
studies as well in genetics/genomics. His methodologic research is funded by various
NIH statistical grants starting from year 2003. Yi Li is actively involved in collaborative
research in clinical trials and observational studies with researchers from the University
of Michigan and Harvard University. The applications have included chronic kidney
disease surveillance, organ transplantation, cancer preventive studies and cancer
genomics.
