Jordan Anaya

PeerJ Author & Reviewer

Summary

I completed all the publication and course requirements for the PhD portion of the MD/PhD degree at UVA, and despite being fully funded by an F31 I left the program to perform independent research. As an independent scientist I developed a popular TCGA data portal (OncoLnc), created a search engine for preprints (PrePubMed), and developed methods to detect error and fraud in the literature and exposed one of the most famous cases of academic misconduct. I then returned to the dream I had in grad school of applying computational methods to the increasingly available genomics data being generated and took a position at Johns Hopkins to help usher in a deep learning revolution for genomics.

The GRIM test: A simple technique detects numerous anomalies in the reporting of results in psychology

Hi, I know you have an excel file to perform GRIM calculations, but because of the usefulness of the test I added a version of the test to PrePubMed, which also allows for visualiz...

The GRIMMER test: A method for testing the validity of reported measures of variability

I realized how to apply granularity testing to test statistics, i.e. the fabled GRIMMEST test. I blogged about it here: http://www.omnesres.com/research/grimmest/ The post ha...

Statistical infarction: A postmortem of the Cornell Food and Brand Lab pizza publications

There is a typo in the table labeled "STATA output for Table 3". The p-value for the last row, last column (F statistic value of 10.41) should read "0.00" instead of "0.02". Th...
