Erkan O. Buzbas is an Associate Professor in the Department of Mathematics and Statistical Science at the University of Idaho's College of Science. He teaches courses including Stat 427, 501, 514, 535, and 565. His educational background includes a B.S. in Chemistry and M.S. in Environmental Sciences from Bogazici University, followed by an M.S. in Statistics and Ph.D. in Bioinformatics and Computational Biology from the University of Idaho.
Dr. Buzbas's research focuses on metascience, reproducibility, computational statistical methods, and Bayesian statistics. He employs stochastic modeling of population-level phenomena and develops inference methods for complex systems. His current work investigates scientific knowledge accumulation, the role of reproducibility, and epistemic diversity using statistical theory and simulations.
His publications emphasize reproducibility, population genetics, and Bayesian methodologies, with recurring themes in scientific reform, model robustness, and evolutionary inference. Awards include recognition for interdisciplinary collaborations spanning natural, social, and mathematical sciences.
Buzbas mentors students in statistical and computational research and has secured grants for metascience investigations. He collaborates with researchers across disciplines to advance quantitative understanding of scientific processes.
