RESEARCH INTERESTS

- My research interests include latent variable models, mixture models, rank data models, computational statistics and Bayesian statistics.

- I develop bespoke statistical methods which are applied to analyse data in a wide range of fields, including epigenomics, metabolomics, genomics, social science, sports science, political science and orthopaedics. I collaborate with statisticians and scientists, nationally and internationally.

- Much of my work is computationally intensive and involves working with high-dimensional data sets.

- My current research grants support work in the areas of model-based clustering and classification for high-dimensional data of mixed type.
