Educational Background
Biography
Dr. Moon earned a bachelor's and master's degree in Electrical Engineering at Brigham Young University, focusing on signal processing. He then obtained an M.S. degree in Mathematics and a Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering at the University of Michigan where his research focused on nonparametric estimation of distributional functionals. Prior to joining Utah State University in 2018, he was a postdoctoral scholar in the Genetics Department and the Applied Math Program at Yale University where he developed methods for exploratory data analysis with a focus in biomedical applications.
