Bo Wei

I am a Postdoc in the Department of Statistics at University of Michigan, where I am very fortunate to be supervised by Prof. Kean Ming Tan and Prof. Xuming He. I joined the Emory University in 2015 for my PhD degree in Biostatistics, under the supervision of Prof. Limin Peng. Prior to Emory University, I received my Sc.M in Biostatistics from the Brown University in 2015, and B.S. in Mathematics from the Nanjing University in 2013.
