Welcome to Yi Liu's homepage!
I am currently a PhD student in the Department of Statistics, North Carolina State University, under the co-advisement of Profs. Shu Yang and Larry Han. My research primarily focuses on developing causal inference and missing data methodologies to analyze various real-world datasets.
In the summer of 2024, I was fortunate to be an intern in the Quantitative Methods in HIV/AIDS Internship, Duke University, funded by the NIAID R25 training grant. I do appreciate the funding and opportunities I received during my PhD study.
Previously, I earned my Master of Biostatistics degree from the Department of Biostatistics and Bioinformatics, Duke University School of Medicine in 2022, under the guidance of Prof. Roland Matsouaka. During this time, I developed a keen interest in propensity score weighting methods, which ignited my journey into causal inference with observational studies! More previously, I obtained my Bachelor of Science in Mathematics and Applied Mathematics from Southeast University in Nanjing, Jiangsu Province, China in 2020.
I was born in Qianxi, Guizhou Province, China, and had the privilege of spending three enriching years at No.1 High School of Guiyang before commencing my college education.
