Mike Kenward BSc MSc PhD

vCard

Background

I received a BSc (I) in Mathematical Statistics from the University of Birmingham in 1977, and have an MSc in Biometry (1978) and PhD in Statistics (1981) from the University of Reading. I have been involved in research in fisheries, agriculture, animal health, pre-clinical and clinical medicine and epidemiology; with positions in Iceland and Finland as well as the Universities of Kent and Reading, and Rothamsted Experimental Station in the UK. I have been a statistical consultant for over twenty years, mainly in medical statistics, and have given over 100 short courses in biostatistics throughout the world.

Teaching

I am on Study Leave for the academic year 2008-2009. Prior to this my
my internal teaching was confined to the MSc in Medical Statistics, for which I have contributed to several Units, including Robust Statistical Methods and The Analysis of Hierarchical and Dependent Data. I also contrubute to short courses within the School and run a small number of external short courses each year both in the UK and overseas.

Research

I have very wide interests in biostatistics and statistical inference. My main area of research concerns statistical methodology in the analysis of repeated measurements and longitudinal data, with emphasis on the problems associated with missing values.
