Senior Statistician

Email: b.v.north@qmul.ac.uk

Profile

I currently serve as senior statistician at the CRUK Cancer Prevention Trials Unit (CPTU) where I am the independent statistician on a number of CPTU trials in cancer prevention and early detection. I also manage 3 other statisticians, have been second supervisor on a PhD at our previous college (KCL), have sat on trial committees and contribute to other relevant statistical projects. 

Research

Research Interests:

I am interested in statistical aspects of clinical trials particularly in oncology largely related to our work in cancer prevention. I am also interested in clinical prediction models, their development and validation and use of biomarkers.
