About Myself
I am a PhD candidate in the Department of Biostatstics at the University of Michigan. I am working with prof. Mukherjee and prof. Johnson to develop Bayesian methodology regarding the case-control study, spatial data analysis, and two-phase case-control study.
A little bit about me: I was born and raised in Ulsan, Korea. I came to Seoul at the age of 20 to attend Seoul National Univerisity. During unforgettable time at SNU, I completed five year long study at statistics department on top of three years of military service. After many years of undergraduate's life, I got accepted as a MS/Ph.d student in biostatistics program at the U of M. For the past three years I have been working with Bhramar Mukherjee, who has been trying to encourage me to complete my thesis ASAP. Now I am enjoying life in Ann Arbor with my wife Namhee and my son Benjamin.
