Ramiro Barrantes-Reynolds, PhD -
Statistician (Curriculum
Vitae
)
Ramiro, a native of Costa Rica, graduated with a double major in
Computer Science and pure Mathematics from the University of Costa
Rica, and then decided to try to find the meaning of life in a Zen
Buddhist center in Shelburne, Vermont. Eventually he started working as
a bioinformatics programmer which led to a PhD doing Bayesian
Statistics as part of the Cell and Molecular Biology Program at the
University of Vermont. During that time, he completely fell in love
with statistics and learned a lot more about molecular biology,
statistics and bioinformatics, and about the use of
quantitative/computational methods in research.
