I am a Ph.D. candidate in the Department of Biostatistics at UCLA. My research interests include statistical genetics and computational statistics. I am currently working on developing statistical methods for conducting genetic studies of survival traits, including survival trait heritability quantification and GWAS, for large-scale biobank data.
