At Vanderbilt, he has collaborated on numerous research projects; assisted investigators in developing clinical research protocols; collaborated on multiple grants funded through external peer-reviewed mechanisms; and developed biostatistical methodologies for clinical trial design, high-dimensional data preprocessing, and other statistical approaches, published in journals such as Statistics in Medicine, Bioinformatics, and Clinical Trials in the last three years. Dr. Shyr is a Fellow of the American Statistical Association and an FDA advisory committee voting member. He has delivered more than 190 abstracts at professional meetings and has published more than 300 peer-reviewed papers.
