Biography
Education: PhD Iowa State University, Ames, 2000 (Statistics) MSE Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore, 1995 (Mathematical Sciences) BA Knox College, Galesburg 1994 (Mathematics and Computer Science) Research Interests: The main components of her research activities are statistical methodological research and scientific collaborative research. Her statistical methodological research concerns developing statistical methodology for analyzing spatially referenced data (spatial statistics) and spatial data repeatedly sampled over time (spatio-temporal statistics), that arise often in the biological, physical, and social sciences. Her collaborative research concerns applying modern statistical methods, especially spatial and spatio-temporal statistics, to studies of agricultural, biological, ecological, environmental, and social systems conducted by research scientists.
