Research Interests

Dr. Sparapani's research applies Bayesian methodology to modern biostatistical problems such as survival analysis, health services research, causal inference, comparative effectiveness research and big data/omics. Recently, he has focused on Bayesian machine learning, Bayesian nonparametrics and the surrounding challenges of efficient computation with large data sets. His collaborative research has involved the analysis of cancer treatments, cardiovascular disease and a wide variety of other conditions such as diabetes, osteoporosis, hepatitis, hip fracture, sinus surgery and spine surgery.
