Statistics
meets
biology.

I'm Youwei Hu — a Biostatistics M.S. candidate at Emory University. I build statistical models and interactive tools for problems in neurology and infectious disease.

What I Work On
01
EEG & Alzheimer’s

Developing biomarkers from resting-state EEG data to distinguish MCI from Alzheimer’s Disease, in collaboration with the Goizueta Brain Health Institute.

Neurological Research
02
Interactive Data Tools

Building Shiny dashboards and visualization pipelines that turn complex statistical outputs into tools researchers can actually use.

Data Engineering
03
Viral Shedding Dynamics

Bayesian hierarchical models in Stan that integrate heterogeneous lab measurements — Ct values and viral load — to characterize infectious disease trajectories.

Infectious Disease
04
Shedding Hub Data Pipeline

Literature review to identify longitudinal viral shedding datasets, followed by manual extraction and an LLM-powered pipeline that parses data into standardized YAML files — building a benchmark dataset for AI model training and validation.
