Chan School of Public Health. I joined Columbia Mailman School of Public Health in 2018 after 3 years as faculty at the Laboratory of Psychiatric Biostatistics of McLean Hospital and the Department of Psychiatry at Harvard Medical School. My research interests are at the intersection of causal inference, biostatistics, epidemiology, and machine learning. I am fond of collaborating with researchers and practitioners in the biomedical and social sciences and of translating statistical methods in Public Health to improve our understanding of mental health, environmental determinants of health, and health disparities. My research is published in internationally recognized statistics, epidemiology and medical journals. I teach courses on causal inference and causal mediation analysis at national and international institutions. I am associated editor of the International Journal of Biostatistics, statistical editor for JAMA Psychiatry, and I serve as editor for the Data Science section at Current Environmental Health Reports. I received an NIH Career Development Award to develop causal inference methodology for mobile health studies in Psychiatry. Funded by an R01 award from the National Institute of Aging and an R21 award from the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences, I am developing causal inference and machine learning approaches to investigate multivariate disease processes that mediate air pollution and metal mixtures effects on cognitive outcomes across the lifespan. https://www.lindavaleri.com/publications daily 0.75 2026-03-14 https://www.lindavaleri.com/news daily 0.75 2026-03-14
