Haiyan Huang, the Center for Computational Biology Director and Professor of Statistics, presented the annual Myra Samuels Memorial Lecture at Purdue University on March 6, 2020. This lecture is named in memory of Professor Myra L. Samuels, whose research focused on issues in biostatistics.
The title of Professor Huang’s lecture is “GeneFishing: a method to reconstruct context-specific portraits of biological processes and its application to cholesterol metabolism.” As an applied statistician, Huang’s research is at the interface between statistics and data-rich scientific disciplines such as biology.
