I'm Patrick Perry, a statistician working as a postdoctoral researcher in the Statistics and Information Sciences Laboratory at Harvard University. I completed my undergraduate and graduate work at Stanford University, obtaining a B.S. in Mathematics in 2003, an M.S. in Electrical Engineering in 2004, and a Ph.D. in Statistics in 2009. For my dissertation I worked with Art Owen, studying applications of cross-validation to unsupervised learning. I have provided statistical consulting in diverse fields including biology, ecology, economics, education, medicine, and political science.
My research is primarily in modern multivariate statistics. Specifically, it focuses on inference for network data, high-dimensional data analysis, and random matrix theory. I'm also interested in data visualization and statistical computing.
