His academic journey includes a PhD in Biostatistics from Yale University and postdoctoral training at the University of Michigan School of Public Health. Prior to joining Tufts, he served as Associate Professor of Statistics at Bucknell University. Dr. Gilani's research program centers on developing spatial and spatiotemporal statistical methods with applications in environmental health. Key areas include: Air pollution modeling and exposure assessment Human mobility pattern analysis Bayesian data fusion techniques Environmental epidemiology Statistical software development for environmental data His work involves interdisciplinary collaborations across public health, clinical medicine, and biological sciences. Analysis of Dr. Gilani's recent publications reveals strong methodological focus on spatiotemporal modeling with applications spanning environmental epidemiology, ecological entomology, and health services research. The majority of his work employs Bayesian approaches and develops novel statistical techniques for analyzing complex environmental and health datasets. Recent outputs demonstrate expanding applications in infectious disease modeling and mobility data analysis. Dr. Gilani maintains an active teaching portfolio including: Principles of Epidemiology & Statistics Biostatistics Data Visualization for Public Health Introduction to Public Health Research Statistical modeling and inference courses He currently leads an NSF-funded project on 'Data Resources and Analytic Tools to Understand Population Scale Human Mobility for Applications in SBE Research' (2025).
