Health Data Science
Summary
Protecting and improving health through advanced statistical techniques and clinical trials methods.
The increasingly large amount of healthcare data currently collected opens the door to exciting challenges and opportunities. The application of complex statistical approaches can be used to optimise the information available, with the primary goal of improving healthcare delivery processes and interventions in our community and beyond.
We focus on the development and application of statistical techniques and clinical trials methodology to address a variety of healthcare problems.
