Biography

I am a lecturer of Statistical Science in the School of Mathematical and Statistical Sciences, University of Galway. My primary research interest is in the longitudinal analysis of clinical biomarkers. In particular, I am interested in developing individualised and dynamic reference ranges for clinical biomarkers that are recorded longitudinally over time. My research domain includes but is not limited to medicine, sport, engineering, finance and etc. I also have a special interest in translational statistics, data visualisations and data science with a focus on developing predictive tools.

Research Interests

Longitudinal Data Analysis (Anomaly detection, Mixed effect models, Bayesian methods)
Translational Statistics (Dynamic Nomograms)
Statistical Data Visualisations (Static and interactive visualisations)
Predictive Modelling (AI, Machine Learning, Image Processing and classification,...)
Wide range of applications (Sport Science, clinical research,...)
