About
I am Professor of Biostatistics in the UCL Great Ormond Street Institute of Child Health.
My research programme focuses on four methodological areas: statistical methods for infectious disease epidemiology, statistical methods for data linkage, analysis of seasonal patterns in clinical and epidemiological research (particularly in mental health), and models for discrete epidemiological and clinical data.
