About Research The Stochastic Processes and Applied Statistics group, led by Prof. David Bolin, develops methodology for statistical models involving stochastic processes and random fields. A main focus is the development of statistical methods based on stochastic partial differential equations. This is an exciting research topic that combines methods from statistics and applied mathematics in order to construct more flexible statistical models and better computational methods for statistical inference. Some current areas of focus are: Random fields on metric graphs In many statistical applications, there is
