Research
I am a Professor of Statistics in the School of Mathematics and Statistics. I have been a Chief Investigator on nationally competitive grants (ARC Discovery, ARC Linkage and NHRMC). I have supervised or co-supervised five PhD students to completion. My 90+ refereed publications have about 3,300 citations and my current h-index is 33 (this means that 33 of my publications have 33 or more citations). My methodological research has been mainly in sample size and meta-analysis; my collaborative research has been in many fields, including cardiac surgery, cancer, cardiovascular research, dentistry, geomatics and social and occupational epidemiology.
