Summary
Peter Tran is a PhD candidate in biostatistics and a practicing paramedic with 11 years of hands-on clinical and software development experience across academic, healthcare, and startup settings. He combines expertise in spatial-survival modeling and multiomics biomarker discovery with practical skills in data pipelines, RNA-seq analysis, and machine learning—work that has produced published circadian phenotyping research. On the front lines he manages complex prehospital care and long transports, giving him a rare perspective that links patient outcomes to quantitative public health research. His background in full‑stack and game development (C#, Java, Node.js, Elm) enables him to build reproducible analytic tools and databases that accelerate translational studies. Based in St. Louis, he collaborates with public health departments and clinical teams to turn noisy real-world data into actionable forecasts and visualizations.
