David Kline

David Kline works in biostatistics and spatial epidemiology, developing statistical models to estimate and track health problems—particularly opioid and stimulant misuse and overdose deaths—across geographic areas and over time. His work also extends to applied clinical research topics such as vaccine outcomes, pregnancy health, and patient-reported outcomes after cancer treatment, often through large collaborative studies. Much of his output involves Bayesian spatio-temporal modeling methods applied to public health surveillance data.

Publication output has grown from around 10 per year in 2017 to a peak in 2019-2020, then remained fairly steady in the high-teens to low-20s range through 2024-2025, indicating a consistent and active publication record over the last decade.
