Biostatistician, 10 yrs in public health epidemiology (University Oxford) and pharmaceutical industry (early/late phase clinical, statistical methods). MSc, PhD qualified in statistics.

Methodology

*I am passionate about learning by counterexample - i.e learning when methods/theorems/rules don't work. This way of thinking sharpens our understanding of the critical assumptions and conditions necessary to make them work (indeed this is a great way to come up with mathematical proofs).

*Where possible I find it very instructive to highlight connections between different areas of mathematics and statistics since this exercise typically uncovers fundamental ideas core to the idea at hand

* For statistics small computer simulations are invaluable to understand and motivate many of the concepts. Randomness and how sample size/information permits structue to be observed through the noise is fundamental.

* Prepare and motivate students not just for exams, but also careers - i.e. many areas of statistics in industry require good computer simulations skills. I do this in "R", a free open-source software package that the pharmaceutical industry and academia both use extensively.

*Personal apporach - listening to the student and trying different approaches to try to uncover the road block in the path of understanding - one size rarely fits all!

Experience

* Teaching life sciences students statistics at University College London during my PhD: introductory level statistics but at an informal and intuitive level

* Teaching/mentoring pharmaceutical statisticians in statistical methodology: the content was advanced in theoretical terms but the focus was on application, typically computer simulations.
