Research Interests:
Dr. Lee's primary research interest is in developing methods for repeated measurement data such as that collected in biomedical studies in which subjects are monitored and data are collected over time. Specifically, Dr. Lee and her collaborators are developing tools for testing goodness-of-fit of models for correlated binary data. Dr. Lee also works on change-point models using a generalized estimating equations (GEE) method. Applications of interest to her in this area include the use of prostate specific antigen to monitor recurrence of prostate cancer after surgery or radiotherapy treatment and the use of dementia measurements before and after diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease and in normal ageing. Dr. Lee spends a significant amount of her time working in collaboration with oncologists. Some of the new and interesting directions in which these collaborations take her include group randomized trials with multiple endpoints.
