Carleton’s Sanjeena Dang will apply cutting-edge statistical algorithms to achieve a comprehensive understanding of biological systems through her newly-designated Tier 2 Canada Research Chair (CRC) in Data Science and Analytics.
In her first year at Carleton, Dang is also an Assistant Professor in the School of Mathematics and Statistics. She plans to focus her research on developing efficient and scalable statistical models to analyze large-scale genomic data.
“It’s wonderful to be recognized as a Canada Research Chair at Carleton. I am thankful for the support from my students and mentors throughout my career, and from colleagues at Carleton University,” says Dang.
