Yawen Guan is an Assistant Professor of Statistics with a decade of research and teaching experience focused on spatial statistics, reduced-dimensional methods for high-dimensional spatial data, and fusion of physical models with observations for environmental science. Her dissertation work centers on the West Antarctic Ice Sheet, reflecting a strong applied focus on cryospheric science and climate-relevant inference. She progressed from PhD and instructional roles at Penn State through postdoctoral work at NC State and SAMSI to faculty positions at Nebraska and Colorado State, combining methodological development with collaborative, domain-driven projects. Known for bridging statistical theory and large-scale environmental applications, she often develops practical reduced-rank approaches to make inference tractable for massive spatial datasets.
