Public Health
Dr. Jiang has broad training in statistics, computational mathematics, and computer science, with expertise in statistical genomics, bioinformatics, and statistical computing. He is interested in developing statistical and computational methods for the analysis of large-scale genomics data with specialties in RNA-Seq data analysis and cancer genomics. Many of his methods were incorporated into software tools used by biologists and bioinformaticians in their data analysis.
