Simcha Pollack

Professor of Computer Information Systems and Decision Sciences

Dr. Pollack, a 1970 Phi Beta Kappa of the City University of New York, went on to receive his Ph.D. in Applied Statistics and Operations Research from New York University in 1974 as a National Science Foundation Fellow. He continued his post-doctoral research into statistical models of perception at Bell Laboratories in Murray Hill, New Jersey.

Dr. Pollack is an internationally recognized scholar in the field of applied statistics. He began teaching at St. John's University in 1979. Since then he has published over 150 papers in prestigious, refereed journals and has participated in over 260 scientific projects that resulted in scholarly presentations in the United States and abroad.

Dr. Pollack's major research interest involves the use of Monte Carlo simulation to design experimental studies and to calculate the optimal sample size (power analysis) for medical research. His specialty is designing longitudinal clinical trials.

Dr. Pollack maintains a dynamic professional life. He has a consulting practice and sits on several important committees of the American Statistical Association and also contributes to the field by acting as a statistical reviewer for scholarly journals.

Last, but not least, Dr. Pollack enjoys teaching statistics in the Tobin College of Business at the undergraduate and graduate levels.
