Knoo Lee

Knoo Lee began his scholastic focus in the field of engineering, but after two years of study, he went into the Korean Navy. Once there, he was influenced by his experiences to go into nursing. After getting his nursing education, he realized the potential behind bridging the technology and health care worlds. “I became interested in utilizing informatics to expand the boundary of human knowledge,” explains Lee. This focus used data driven methodologies and big data analytics to pair his engineering background and his nursing background into one. After completing three years of research at the University of Minnesota, he…

Sean Lane

Research Interests My research focuses on emotion regulation processes, their downstream effects on health and relationship outcomes, and how these processes differ between representative and clinical subgroups. I apply and develop statistical methodologies, with a focus on nonlinear models and dynamic systems in characterizing these processes. I have also applied these methods in more substantive research, including the optimization of alcohol use disorder classification and the role of alcohol use as an antecedent, consequent, and modifier of emotion regulation processes.
