Thank you, bro! I do feel the limitation of research in UMN. I am looking into OSU interdisciplinary biostat program, which the first two-year coursework are the same to OSU stat. I could choose professors from stat as dissertation advisors. From the list https://biostatprograms.osu.edu/biostatphd/faculty, half of the stat faculty are there. Compared to UMN, OSU allows for more interactions with the stat, which I prefer. However, this program does not have a ranking and I guess some professors' background is not as strong as UMN and even BU. BU professors' education background are all reputable schools. How would you value this OSU program?
