Our Team

CHI is a space that is designed to cultivate innovation and to foster collaboration. Our staff consists of many individuals from varying disciplines like biostatistics, epidemiology, computer engineering, physics, statistics, health economics, and nursing.

In addition to our in-house staff, CHI also houses various research teams like the DIH Lab, AbSPORU, Cancer Precision Medicine, SeroTracker, and CSM Faculty Analytics.

By providing a space for conversation and socialization, CHI fosters inter-disciplinary collaborations for cutting-edge new projects. The space also allows CHI to host the Health Data Science and Biostatistics program, visiting scholars, working group meetings, summer students, graduate students, PhD students, Post-doctoral fellows, faculty, analysts, administrative staff, and other researchers as well as seminars and workshops.
