SURPH: Statistical methods Using data Resources to improve Population Health
Telephone number:Email Address: tommy.nyberg@mrc-bsu.cam.ac.uk
I am a postdoctoral Research Associate working with Dr Anne Presanis and Prof Daniela De Angelis since October 2020. My research involves the application of Bayesian evidence synthesis methods to combine information from several disparate COVID-19 surveillance systems, with the aim to estimate the severity of the ongoing pandemic in England.
Before joining the Unit I worked in different fields of epidemiology research for more than ten years. Most recently I finished my PhD in cancer genetic epidemiology at the Department of Public Health and Primary Care, University of Cambridge (supervisors: Antonis Antoniou and Marc Tischkowitz), and before that I worked with various research projects in cancer epidemiology at Karolinska Institutet, Stockholm, Sweden.
