Sijin Wen is a professor in the Department of Biostatistics in the School of Public Health at West Virginia University, with a joint appointment in the Mary Babb Randolph Cancer Center. Dr. Wen received his PhD in Biostatistics at the University of Texas Health Science Center in Houston (2009). He was previously a principal statistical analyst at MD Anderson Cancer Center from 2001 to 2012 and served as a biostatistician on several NIH/NCI-funded grants. His research interests include adaptive designs, interim analysis on efficacy and toxicity in clinical trials for cancer patients, multiple disease recurrences, multivariate survival analysis, and various applied statistical problems. In addition, Dr. Wen is interested in analyzing gene expression data from microarrays and protein arrays or tissue arrays using clustering algorithms and statistical modeling. He has implemented algorithms and tools for analyzing high-throughput data sets. These analyses identify sets of genes that can be used to distinguish features between normal tissue versus cancer, different types or stages of cancer, or treated versus untreated cancer cells.
