Expertise | Environmental Epidemiology, Noise measurement and estimation, Causal Mediation Analysis |
Research Interests | Use of epidemiological methods such as Causal Mediation Model to study the relationship between environmental factors (such as greenness, air pollution and noise pollution) and chronic diseases. Simultaneously, high-dimensional statistical model is developed to analyze the effects of mediation factors and co-exposure factors on the disease. |
