PhD Epidemiology Alumni

Jian-Ping He, MS Epidemiology 1998

I am a biostatistician at National Institute of Mental Health working on large epidemiological data with complex sampling design.

MSU Epi provided me with a high-quality education and the tools I needed to succeed and grow. Introduction of Epi, causal inference, and statistical courses gave me knowledge and techniques in critical thinking and appropriately use of statistical methods. My problem solving skills in data management and ability of conducting statistical analyses were greatly enhanced by working with the fisheater project data for my Epi thesis.

As a foreign student with cultural shock and language barrier, I was especially grateful for the study environment that the loving and caring EPI faculty and staff provided.
