Jingjing Zou

Jingjing Zou is an Assistant Professor in Residence at the Herbert Wertheim School of Public Health & Human Longevity Science, University of California San Diego. Her research focuses on integrating statistical methodologies with medical imaging and public health challenges, particularly in cancer prevention, physical activity analysis, and radiomics.

Education:

• PhD in Statistics, Columbia University
• MA in Statistics, Columbia University
• BS in Statistics, Peking University

Research Interests:

Dr. Zou's work emphasizes functional data analysis, accelerometer-based physical activity monitoring, and MRI techniques for cancer treatment evaluation. She develops statistical models to analyze longitudinal health data, with applications in cardiovascular disease prevention and oncology. Her studies often bridge clinical outcomes with advanced imaging biomarkers.

Grants:

• NIH/NHLBI (Principal Investigator): Examining Longitudinal Changes in Accelerometer-Measured Physical Activity in Preventing Cardiovascular Disease (2024-2028)
• NIH R37CA249659 (Co-Investigator): Advanced diffusion MRI for cervical cancer treatment evaluation (2021-2026)
• NIH R01CA255780 (Co-Investigator): Whole-body radiomics for gynecologic cancers (2020-2024)

Labs/Teams: Collaborates with interdisciplinary teams in radiology, oncology, and biostatistics, including co-authors like Loki Natarajan (UCSD) and Loren Mell (UCSD).
