Research Interests:

My current research concerns the estimation of the prevalence of hepatitis C infection in Scotland using Bayesian methods for multi-parameter evidence synthesis. This involves consideration of techniques for model comparison and for identifying inconsistencies in evidence.
Other research interests
  • Meta-analysis and cross-design synthesis of evidence
  • Bayesian hierarchical models
  • Markov models for evaluation of cancer screening
