Jaewon Oh, PH.D.

Research Interests

My key research involves utilizing various global databases to investigate factors associated with depression, cognitive decline, anxiety, and insomnia. Additionally, I’ve worked on projects to develop and implement digital therapeutics for detecting and screening symptoms of depression, alcohol overuse, and sleep disorders.

Opportunities for Students

I am looking for students who wish to gain research experience in conducting data analysis using various statistical packages (including SAS, R, SPSS, etc.) and work towards publishing research outcomes.
