Summary
Joshua Lambert is an Associate Professor of Biostatistics and Epidemiology with a decade of experience applying and inventing statistical methods for high-impact, real-world problems. He leads multidisciplinary teams on big-data, cloud-based projects (AWS, Snowflake, SQL) including NIH- and state-funded studies on COVID-19 therapeutics and prenatal opioid exposure, and has served as PI or key personnel on over $1M in grants since 2018. Joshua develops and popularizes practical algorithms—most notably the Feasible Solutions Algorithm and its rFSA R package, which has been widely adopted across diverse fields—and explores novel ideas like Pareto optimality in regression and ML. He teaches PhD-level multivariable and multivariate statistics, mentors graduate students in both methodological research and applied analytics, and blends rigorous theory with hands-on implementation in R, Python, SAS, and JMP. Based in Cincinnati, he combines deep academic scholarship with an entrepreneurial drive to translate statistical innovation into usable tools for clinicians and scientists.
