I studied Natural Sciences at the University of Cambridge, and completed a PhD in particle physics at Durham University. I then retrained as a medical statistician through an NIHR research methods fellowship. As part of the fellowship I obtained an MSc in Medical Statistics from LSHTM and worked at the Pragmatic Clinical Trials Unit, Queen Mary University of London. I joined the School as a research fellow in 2014. Since then I have worked on a variety of project including work on both trials and observational studies.

Teaching
I give lectures and facilitate practicals on the Statistical Inference course, which is part of the Foundations of Medical Statistics module of the Medical Statistics MSc. I also tutor students who are studying for the Medical Statistics MSc.
Research
One of my main research interests is in the statistical methodology of clinical trials. I hold a MRC Skills Development Fellowship, during which I am looking at ways of improving the statistical efficiency of randomised controlled trials through their design, focusing on trials that look for a difference in slopes over time and series of N-of-1 trials.
