I am a biostatistician at the Lankenau Institute for Medical Research where I work on lab experiments, clinical trials and other medical research. I have a PhD in Statistics from Stanford University. I have published books on bootstrap and biostatistics and have written or coauthored many articles in statistics, mathematics and medical journals. I am an ASA Fellow and am also a member of ENAR, the IMS, the Bernoulli Society and the Royal Statistical Society. I like teaching and mentoring and playing chess with my son (who usually beats me).
