Research and Teaching Interests

Dr. Rahul Ghosal's research focuses on developing novel statistical methods such as Functional data analysis with applications in biosciences and Distributional data analysis for modeling wearable data with applications in gait, aging and Alzheimer's disease. His other research topics include variable selection, nonparametric inference, shape restricted regression, Bayesian inference, survival analysis and environmental modeling.

He is also very interested in collaborative research to identify clinically relevant characteristic patterns of physical activity and sleep, and associate them with cognitive, behavioral, and neuropsychiatric endpoints. Please get in touch if interested in collaboration.
