Statistics and statistical education
I was trained as a biostatistician and have experience in cardiology, perinatology, ophthalmology, pharmacology and large-scale cancer studies. I have also worked on the collection and interpretation of archaeological data in Israel and the determination of factors involved in home owner satisfaction for a national corporation. Recent work with faculty and students has included cancer studies, perception of intonation, and authorship questions in music and the Bible.
