My research interests center on modelling dependent data with a particular interest in models which are useful for applications in biology and medicine. Robust techniques are developed where necessary. These interests developed naturally from my PhD research where I proposed a robust modelling approach suitable for handling longitudinal binary data.
The Census of Marine Life is a growing global network of researchers in more than 45 nations engaged in a ten-year initiative to assess and explain the diversity, distribution, and abundance of marine life in oceans--past, present, and future.
