Dr. Yanan Fan is a Senior Principal Research Scientist at CSIRO's Data61 and an Adjunct Professor of Statistics at the University of New South Wales (UNSW). His research focuses on Bayesian models, computational methods for real-world problems, and interdisciplinary applications in fields like medical imaging, cosmology, and climate science. He holds a PhD in Statistics from the University of Bristol and has over 20 years of academic experience at UNSW's School of Mathematics and Statistics. Education: PhD in Statistics, University of Bristol, UK Undergraduate Degree in Mathematics, University of Melbourne Research Interests: Fan develops Bayesian semiparametric models, approximate Bayesian computation (ABC), and scalable computational methods for medical imaging (e.g., PET), cosmology, and climate modeling. He also investigates gender bias in educational evaluations and leads initiatives like the Data4Good stream of UDASH. His work emphasizes practical problem-solving through advanced statistical techniques. Leadership & Contributions: As Team Leader of Bayesian Computational Methods and Applications at Data61, he drives innovation in statistical methodologies. He has served on the Scientific Committee of MATRIX research institute and as an Associate Editor for major statistical journals. His projects include probabilistic climate projections and bias analysis in student evaluations. Labs & Groups: Active member of the StatML Group and leader of the Bayesian Computational Methods team, focusing on integrating machine learning and statistical computing.
