Background, Interests, Current Activities:
Dr. Allore has been at Yale since 2000, and her research is focused on issues related to the design and analysis of trials and studies of multifactorial geriatric health conditions, especially among persons with Alzheimer’s Disease and related dementia. Several projects focus upon health disparities of older adults. She developed a sub-discipline of biostatistics that focuses on training and methodological development in geriatrics called “Gerontologic Biostatistics.” This discipline trains biostatisticians for conducting collaborative research with clinical investigators in geriatrics and gerontology and provides the basis for the development of new statistical methodologies.
