Research Interest
Dr. Wu's research is focused on the development of statistical methods for high-dimensional data for translational science, particularly for application to problems arising in the "omics" sciences, including genomics,epigenomics, proteomics/metabolomics, and metagenomics, but usually not economics. This is within the context of analyzing clinical trials and population based studies.
