Senior Statistician, Consultant and Researcher at NDPH in Oxford.
I am the lead statistician and advisor for a number of global research teams and I am particularly interested in statistical analyses in the context of public health (maternal health, geriatric care, radiological protection). My research focuses on the development and application of analytic solutions to complex problems in these fields. Seasonal behaviour and hierarchical models for complex data structures are of particular interest. I act as a Statistical Advisor and Consultant to NDPH researchers and DPhil students. I am also a Module Lead and lecturer in Statistics on the MSc in Global Health Sciences at Oxford.
