Wendy Lou
Wendy Lou is Professor of Biostatistics at the Dalla Lana School of Public Health, University of Toronto.[1] Her research has focused on the development of statistical methodology for the study of chronic conditions and quality improvement, as well as on biomedical applications of the distribution theory of runs and patterns.
Book
With James C. Fu, Lou is the author of the book Distribution Theory of Runs and Patterns and Its Applications: A Finite Markov Chain Imbedding Approach (World Scientific, 2003).[2]
Recognition
Lou is the Canada Research Chair in Statistical Methods for Health Care. In 2013 Lou became a Fellow of the American Statistical Association "for her notable contributions to the distribution theory of runs and patterns, for remarkable collaborations in the biomedical and healthcare sciences, for exemplary leadership in statistical education and outstanding service to the profession".[3][4]
