This project aims to develop statistical tools that integrate high-throughput molecular data with biological knowledge to make discoveries in complex diseases. This project uses machine learning methods, statistical models and proteomic platforms to identify relationships among clinico-pathologic and molecular measurements. It will produce tools and insights that are intended to accelerate the process of biologically and clinically significant discoveries in biomedical research. This project will help Australian researchers in statistics and users of statistics (from fields as diverse as biology, ecology, medicine, finance, agriculture and the social sciences) to make better predictions that are easier to understand.Read moreRead less
Vertically integrated statistical modelling in multi-layered omics studies. This project will develop an adaptive statistical modelling framework that uses information from many omics data to discover a collection of stable and clinically significant biomarkers. Results will enable researchers to better understand the underlying biological system of complex diseases such as cancer, Alzheimer and diabetes.
