Hello, my name is

Stephen Salerno

I am a postdoctoral fellow in Biostatistics at the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Center, working with Jeff Leek. I received my PhD and MS in Biostatistics from the University of Michigan under the supervision of Yi Li, and a BS in Biometry and Statistics from Cornell University.

My research focuses on:

  • Statistical methods for drawing inference on AI/ML-generated data
  • Deep learning for high-dimensional data and correlated survival endpoints
  • Survival analysis for oncology and chronic disease
  • Causal inference in settings of complex sampling

I also work on clinical quality measure development, public reporting, and health policy, especially in kidney disease and lung cancer, and I am committed to building user-friendly software and contributing to data-for-good initiatives.
