Major Research Interests
The group for medical data science develops computational approaches for the analysis of biomedical data. This comprises methods from high-dimensional statistics and from machine learning. We are highly interested in developing methods for the integration of multiple different data sources, such as multiple -omics layers, and in medical applications, such as optimizing treatment of cancer and chronic kidney disease patients.
