Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Ruofei Du is an Associate Professor in Biostatistics at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences. Her research interests include analyzing population-based incidence rates of diseases such as cervical intraepithelial neoplasia, particularly within the context of the human papillomavirus vaccine era. She has also investigated the efficacy of different methods for delivering genetic counseling, comparing telephone-based interventions to in-person approaches. Du's work extends to the development of robust statistical methods for identifying differential abundance in metagenomic samples and exploring the structural implications of human microRNA molecules. Her recent publications also address interventions for older cancer survivors, examining metal exposure and oxidative stress markers in pregnant individuals, and analyzing the prognostic value of thyroid hormones in acute ischemic stroke. She has a published h-index of 16 with 55 total publications and 838 citations.
