Dr. Spiegelman’s research is motivated by problems which arise in epidemiology and require biostatistical settlement. In particular, she focused on methods for study design and data analysis which reduce bias in estimation and inference due to measurement error or misclassification in the exposure variable. A particular current interest is risk-based monitoring of multi center investigations to enhance quality and prevent fraud. She has extensive expertise in troubleshooting and solving methodological issues that arise in longitudinal investigations, in clinical trials, and in large scale public health effectiveness evaluations.
