Current Research Interests

Dr. Patil’s biostatistical research interests are in longitudinal data analysis, clinical trial design, the analysis of incomplete data, multiple imputation, measurement error models, and Bayesian methods. Other research interests include the analysis of questionnaire data obtained by complex sampling designs. Dr. Patil uses these methods in her clinical collaborations with oncologists and surgeons in the Genitourinary, Breast, and Colorectal Surgery Services. In ongoing work, Dr. Patil is developing methodology that can be used to investigate the relationship between two or more longitudinal biomarkers as predictors of disease outcome. In recent work, she has examined stage migration in metastatic renal cell carcinoma over the last four decades. Dr. Patil serves as a regular lecturer for the Department of Surgery Clinical Research Methods lecture series.
