Xiaoxiao Sun - Assistant Professor

I am an Assistant Professor in the Department of Epidemiology and Biostatistics at the University of Arizona. My research focus is developing theoretically justifiable and computationally efficient methods for complex and big data arising in data-rich areas, such as genomics, social media, and neuroscience. I am particularly interested in nonparametric modeling, computational biology and biomedical analysis, statistical computing, and big data analytics.

In my previous research, I have developed several statistical methods for time course Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) data. I am currently focusing on developing the novel computational framework to analyze super-large datasets efficiently.
