Causal Inference

Ravi Allada

Understanding why we sleep remains one of the most enduring mysteries in science. A core feature of sleep is its homeostatic regulation, i.e., waking experience drives subsequent sleep. Here we are investigating the molecular basis of the sleep homeostat: 1) how does the homeostat sense waking signals? 2) How does the homeostat trigger sleep? 3) ...

My research is driven by a strong belief that abstracting complex scientific problems into computational problems has the power to accelerate the speed of scientific discovery and change who, here and how scientific discoveries are made and translated into practical solutions. I apply this principle to integrate computational techniques such as machine learning and artificial ...

We are conducting a project to deploy Natural Language Processing to analyze clinicians' progress notes from Electronic Health Records and identify healthcare-related features that determine Failure To Rescue (Death after a major complication) among cardiac surgery patients. Another project that I would like to highlight is the project where we assessed the relationship between intraoperative ...

William Axinn

Dr. Axinn is a Professor of survey research, population studies, sociology, and public policy at the University of Michigan. Axinn is a social demographer studying community, intergenerational, and social psychological influences on marriage, childbearing, reproductive health, mental health, and the natural environment. He is the former director of Michigan’s Survey Research Center, which has an ...

David Rigby

I completed my PhD in sociology at UNC Chapel Hill followed by teaching at Washington University St. Louis, a postdoctoral fellowship at Duke with the sociology department and population research institute, and I am now a research scientist at the UM Institute for Social Research in the Landscapes of Population Health program. In my research ...

Early warning systems (EWS) that predict patient outcomes for therapeutic interventions are increasingly being used to make clinical decisions. Predicted events often include outcomes such as unplanned ICU transfer, cardiac arrest, or death. The goal of these models is to provide a timely alert to clinicians so they can intervene and prevent these outcomes from ...

Katherine Brumberg

Katherine Brumberg’s research focuses on matching and stratification methods in observational studies. Her main contributions have been in developing new methods for optimizing the balance of covariates between the treated and control groups using approximation algorithms to solve intractable integer programs. She applies this research in healthcare and social science domains and has a particular ...

Bingkai Wang

My research interests are in causal inference, randomized clinical trials, clustered data and their interactions with infectious disease research. In my research, data analysis is the core, and I use semi-parametric models and machine learning algorithms to draw statistical inference, make predictions, and quantify uncertainties.

Efe Yamac Yarbasi

Dr. Yarbasi’s expertise lies in uncertainty quantification for complex systems, verification and validation (V&V) processes, robotics, energy systems modeling within smart building infrastructures, and systems engineering. Prior to joining U-M, he collaborated extensively with government and industry on a range of projects, including the development of a surgical endoscopy robot and the energy optimization of ...
