Makram Talih, Ph.D.

I hold a Ph.D. in Statistics (2003) from Yale University. From 2003 to 2012, I was on the faculty of the Department of Mathematics and Statistics as well as the Program in Epidemiology and Biostatistics at Hunter College of the City University of New York (CUNY). Since 2011, I have worked at the CDC's National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS) to develop statistical methods for measuring and tracking health-related inequalities, and I presently serve as Associate Director for Science for the Office of Analysis and Epidemiology (OAE) at NCHS. I very much enjoy teaching and interacting freely with students. However, any views that I may express during those interactions are mine, in my personal capacity, and do not necessarily represent the views of NCHS, CDC, or the US Government.
