Correction: In the Jan. 17 issue, a photo of Zhao Yang, instead of Guoqing Zhou, appeared by mistake on the Grants and Contracts page. Dr. Yang is a research statistician in the Office of Institutional Research and Assessment. He joined ODU in 1999. A photo of Dr. Zhou, who is the lead author of a paper cited on this page, appears above.
