I work with Dr. Susan Murphy on variable selection for decision making in the dynamic treatment regime setting. Currently, we are working on selecting variables which qualitatively interact with the outcome variable. Also, I collaborate with psychologists to conduct a SMART trial which tries to develop the treatment to autism for children from 5 to 9 years old.
