Sara Kathryn Wade is a Teaching Professor at the University of Trento, holding roles across multiple departments: the Department of Sociology and Social Research, Department of Cellular, Computational and Integrative Biology (CIBIO), Department of Mathematics, and Department of Information Engineering and Computer Science. Her primary teaching responsibilities include Bayesian statistics courses, focusing on both parametric and nonparametric frameworks. She designs curricula emphasizing foundational principles of Bayesian inference, computational methods, and practical applications using tools like R.
Her research interests revolve around advanced statistical methodologies, including Dirichlet and Pitman-Yor processes in nonparametric mixture models, hierarchical modeling, and simulation techniques. She emphasizes interdisciplinary approaches, bridging theoretical statistics with real-world data analysis challenges. Students under her guidance learn to apply Bayesian frameworks to diverse fields such as computational biology, informatics, and social sciences.
No scientific awards or grants are explicitly mentioned in the provided materials. Her academic contributions are centered on pedagogy and statistical education, with a focus on equipping students with computational skills and critical reasoning in probabilistic modeling.
