Affiliation
Teaching
I am the module organiser and lecturer for the Survival Analysis course taught on the MSc Medical Statistics.Research
I spend most of my time working on statistical collaborations with the Dementia Centre at UCL. I was also involved in work with the British Women's Heart and Health Study (BWHHS) from 2007-2010 and am currently involved in a project to idenity the optimal screening intervals for screening for abdominal aortic aneurysm.
