Welcome to my webpage! My name is Eric Yanchenko and I'm a fifth-year PhD candidate in statistics at North Carolina State University. I am advised by Brian Reich and Srijan Sengupta. In April 2024, I will be starting an Assistant Professor position (tenure-track) in the Global Connectivity Program at Akita International University in Akita, Japan. Previously, I was on a pre-doctoral JSPS short-term fellowship at Tokyo Institute of Technology in Japan working with Petter Holme and Tsuyoshi Murata.

My current research interests are in:

• Networks
  • Hypothesis testing for meso-scale structures
  • Core-periphery structure
  • Influence maximization
• Bayesian inference
  • Priors for scale parameters in hierarchical models
• External and historical controls in clinical trials
