Research
|
Andrea S. Foulkes, Sc.D. is
an Associate Professor of Biostatistics at the University of
Massachusetts School of Public Health and Health Sciences. Her research includes
developing analytic methods for characterizing the relationships among
high-dimensional molecular and cellular data and measures of disease
progression. These methods draw from cluster analysis,
recursive partitioning, mixed effects modeling and Markov
modeling. She currently collaborates with investigators across
multiple disciplines ranging from oncology to immunology to identify
and develop appropriate techniques for analyzing single nucleotide
polymorphisms (SNPs) and disease outcomes. In addition, Dr.
Foulkes is working on establishing methods for understanding the
complex relationships among HIV-1 genotypic markers of resistance to
antiretroviral drugs, cellular immune modulation and clinical
outcomes.
