Heejung Bang, Ph.D., serves as Professor in the Department of Public Health Sciences at the University of California, Davis School of Medicine. Her academic career spans biostatistics, epidemiology, and health policy with expertise in clinical trial methodology, cost-effectiveness analysis, and predictive modeling for medical decision-making. Dr. Bang's educational foundation includes: B.S. from Ewha Women's University, Seoul, South Korea (1995) M.S. in Statistics from North Carolina State University (1997) Ph.D. in Statistics from North Carolina State University (1999) Postdoctoral Fellowship in Biostatistics & Epidemiology at Harvard School of Public Health (1999-2001) Her research program integrates advanced statistical methods with clinical applications across diverse medical fields. Current work focuses on optimizing screening protocols, evaluating healthcare costs, and developing prediction models for conditions including diabetes, kidney disease, and surgical outcomes. Methodological innovations in blinding assessment and handling censored data represent significant contributions to clinical trial science. Recent publications demonstrate consistent leadership in biostatistical methodology applied to real-world health challenges. Key trends include development of risk prediction tools for dialysis patients, analysis of opioid prescribing patterns, and evaluation of surgical outcomes. Her work bridges statistical theory with clinical practice across reproductive medicine, endocrinology, nephrology, and pain management. Dr. Bang's scholarly recognition includes: Dean’s Team Award for Excellence at UC Davis (2012) Young Investigator Award from the American Statistical Association (2001) Multiple national student awards including ENAR Travel Award and Gertrude M. Cox Academic Achievement Award While specific grant details aren't provided in available sources, her extensive publication record in high-impact medical journals indicates sustained research funding. Dr. Bang actively collaborates with clinical researchers across specialties, evidenced by co-authorship on studies spanning emergency medicine, endocrinology, and surgical disciplines. Her team-based approach was recognized through the Dean's Team Award for Excellence at UC Davis. As a core faculty member in Public Health Sciences, Dr. Bang contributes to the School of Medicine's research infrastructure through methodological consultation and statistical leadership. Her work supports evidence-based decision-making across the UC Davis Health system and national healthcare policy discussions.
