Jie (Jenny) Huang, ScD
Dr. Huang received her Bachelor's degree (with honors) in Computer Science
from Wuhan University, Master’s
degree in Biostatistics from University of California,
Los Angeles and Doctoral degree in Biostatistics from Harvard
University. Dr. Huang worked many years as a Biostatistician on a number
of nationwide multicenter AIDS clinical trials at Center
for Biostatistics in AIDS Research, Harvard
School of Public Health. Before joined the faculty in the Department
of Preventive Medicine at Northwestern
University, Dr. Huang was an instructor in medicine at Harvard
Medical School and the director of the methodology/biometry core in the
Section of Clinical Sciences at Brigham
and Women’s Hospital.
Research Interests
Dr. Huang's current research involves a variety of statistical issues arising
in clinical trials and other longitudinal studies, with particular emphasis
on statistical methods and analyses related to HIV infectious disease and cancer.
One area of interest in statistical methods is predicting survival type outcome
measures with information from a large number of predictors. Such question
arises when the scientific interest is to combine clinical information and
gene expression profiling which contains thousands of gene expression measurements
to identify risk groups in terms of survival and predict a patient’s
survival time. The statistical challenge arises because the survival time often
cannot be directly observed and subject to various censoring, and because the
number of independent variables exceeds the number of subjects in the study.
Dr. Huang is also interested in developing model selection procedures in high
dimensional regression with censored data analysis. Another area of research
interest is statistical models and methods with clustered data.
