Tenure Track Assistant Professor (RTT) in Medical Statistics

Department of Life Sciences, Health and Health Professions · Link Campus University

I am a quantitative researcher working at the intersection of medical statistics, mathematical modeling and epidemiology. My research spans the mathematical analysis of epidemic processes, including network dynamics and the spread of information, as well as clinical and epidemiological data analysis, health technology assessment, and mechanistic modeling in biomedical applications.
