Summary
John Paige is an Associate Professor of Statistics and senior researcher with 11 years of experience applying advanced statistical methods to climate and spatial problems. He combines academic rigor—from a PhD in statistics at the University of Washington—with hands-on computational work, including parallelizing spatial likelihoods on supercomputers and building tools to convert netCDF climate simulations for spectral analysis. His research spans uncertainty quantification for climate models, MCMC, graphical modeling, statistical emulation, and high-dimensional inference, and he has published collaborative work on biological swarming and climate feedbacks. Based in Portland, he is known for translating complex theory into efficient, parallel implementations that accelerate real-world scientific workflows.
