Biography

Eunhee Kim, PhD, is an Assistant Professor of Biostatistics at Brown. Her methodological research interests include semiparametric and nonparametric methods for evaluating biomarkers and medical diagnostic tests; personalized medicine in disease diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment; machine learning; and longitudinal data analysis.

Her current collaborative research interests lie in cancer, maternal and child health, and women's health. She is a lead statistician of the American College of Radiology Imaging Network (ACRIN), conducting clinical research to evaluate diagnostic imaging and image-guided therapy for cancer.

Dr. Kim currently teaches Linear and Generalized Linear Models, Advanced Methods for Multivariate Analysis, and Longitudinal Data Analysis in the Department of Biostatistics.

- The ACRIN is a national cooperative group, organized and funded by the National Cancer Institute in 1999 to conduct multi-center, interdisciplinary clinical evaluations of diagnostic imaging in the early detection and diagnosis, staging, and treatment of cancer. ACRIN's ultimate goal is to develop and disseminate scientific knowledge that will help reduce cancer-related mortality and morbidity and improve the quality of life of cancer patients.
