Comparing the NBA and WNBA
Do you like offensive rebounding? How about the midrange game? Well, I’m here to tell you that you might enjoy watching the WNBA and help find your potential...
Hi, I'm Zoe Vernon. I am a fourth year PhD candidate in the Statistics Department at University of California, Berkeley. Before coming to Berkeley I received by B.A. in Mathematics with a minor in Computer Science from Washington University in St. Louis (after transferring from Winthrop University where I also studied Mathematics).
At UC-Berkeley I am co-advised by Haiyan Huang and Peter Bickel. Currently, I am working on single cell RNA-sequencing data with hopes of using it to discover novel gene-gene relationships, as well as, a project to understand brain atrophy in multiple sclerosis.
I am also interested in using statistics to understand sports (particularly basketball) and will be using my blog to explore that.
