New challenges are emerging with the availability of complex lo ngitudinal data in this big data era. Generalized estimating equations (GE E) are widely used to analyze longitudinal data\, which can achieve consis tency and improve efficiency. The first part of this talk will introduce a projected estimating equation approach to reliably drawing inference for linear functionals of regression parameters in GEE in high-dimensional set tings\, where the number of covariates (such as proteomic features) may ex ceed the sample size. The second part of this talk will focus on a transfe r learning approach for GEE that facilitates parameter estimation and pred iction in the target population when external models from larger cohorts a re readily available.\n\nSpeaker Bio\n\nLu Xia is an Assistant Professor i n the Department of Statistics and Probability at Michigan State Universit y. Before joining Michigan State in 2023\, she earned her PhD in Biostatis tics from the University of Michigan and worked as a Postdoctoral Scholar in the Department of Biostatistics at the University of Washington after g raduation. Her current research focuses on high-dimensional statistics\, d ata integration\, machine learning and multi-omics data analysis.
