Peng Ding is an Associate Professor in the Department of Statistics at the University of California, Berkeley. He holds a B.S. in Mathematics and B.A. in Economics from Peking University, followed by an M.S. in Statistics from the same institution. He earned his Ph.D. in Statistics from Harvard University in 2015 and completed a postdoctoral fellowship at Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health. His research focuses on causal inference, missing data, Bayesian statistics, and applied statistical methods in biomedical and social sciences. Ding is particularly known for his work on improving the robustness of causal inference in observational studies and randomized experiments through sensitivity analysis and design-based approaches.
His research interests include methodologies to address contaminated data (e.g., missing values, measurement errors), factorial experiments, and sensitivity analysis for unmeasured confounding. He has contributed to theoretical advancements in rerandomization, regression adjustment, and instrumental variable techniques. His work emphasizes practical applications in fields such as epidemiology, social sciences, and public health.
Peng Ding teaches courses on causal inference, statistical theory, and linear models. His most recent courses include Data, Inference, and Decisions and Linear Models. He actively mentors graduate and undergraduate students through directed study programs. His research has been published in top-tier statistical journals and presented at international conferences.
