I am interested in Bayesian hierarchical modelling for panel and longitudinal data, in particular to address problems in econometrics and biology. Specifically,
I am working on models that integrate computer simulations with clinical trials in order to reduce their length and size.
I am working on models for the analysis of super-resolution microscopy images.
I am developing shrinkage priors for variable selection.
I have devised mixture models capable of accommodating skewness and non-Gaussian tail behaviour in econometrics.
I have been involved in developing models for systems biology, trying to understand gene regulatory networks.
I am also interested in objective Bayesian methods and their relationship with measures of information.
