About
The Computational Epidemiology Lab, led by Assistant Professor Sarah F. Ackley, focuses on developing quantitative methods to study Alzheimer’s disease and dementia. The lab addresses challenges in evaluating biomarkers and treatments, interpreting complex epidemiologic evidence, and improving the credibility of biomedical research. Specific research questions include whether biomarkers like amyloid clearance can serve as reliable surrogate endpoints for cognitive outcomes in clinical trials, and how to evaluate the credibility of scientific findings, integrate evidence across study designs, and draw causal conclusions from imperfect data.
