Swallow, concerned adaptive group testing.[5] After taking a temporary position at the University of Wisconsin at Madison, Hughes-Oliver returned to NCSU as a faculty member in 1992.[5] At NCSU, she directed the Exploratory Center for Cheminformatics Research, a large research group that she founded in 2005 with a large grant from the National Institutes of Health, and directed the graduate program in statistics beginning in 2007.[3][6] She has also worked as a professor of statistics at George Mason University from 2011 to 2014, but kept her position at NCSU and returned to it.[7] Awards and honorsIn 2007 Hughes-Oliver was elected as a Fellow of the American Statistical Association.[8] She is the 2014 winner of the Blackwell-Tapia prize, awarded both for her contributions to the methodology and applications of statistics and also for her efforts to increase the diversity of the mathematical sciences.[9] References1. ^Jacqueline Hughes-Oliver: contributions to drug discovery, Stanley Young, Blackwell-Tapia Conference, 2014, retrieved 2017-08-21 2. ^People: Jacqueline Hughes-Oliver, NCSU Dept. of Statistics, retrieved 2017-08-21 3. ^1 Jacqueline M.
