Zhaoxi Zhang

PhD Candidate in Statistics

About


Third year PhD student in Statistics at the University of Edinburgh. I am working under the supervision of Dr. Vanda Inácio, Dr. Sara Wade, and Prof. Finn Lindgren. My research is mostly around biostatistics (statistical evaluation of medical tests) and Bayesian nonparametric methods (mixture models).

A well trained applied statistician, and a not very experienced statistical researcher (yet).
