Thomas Fanshawe

MPhil MA PhD

Senior Medical Statistician

  • Departmental Lecturer
  • University Research Lecturer

My research is based on the development and application of statistical methods to studies in primary care. My main areas of current interest include diagnosis and risk prediction, and the application of meta-analytic methods.

I have previously worked on studies in a diverse range of application areas, including oncology, radiology, gastrointestinal disease, psychiatry, smoking cessation, mental health and environmental epidemiology.

Methodological research topics that have featured in my current or previous research include models for inter-rater reliability and diagnostic accuracy; risk prediction; joint and hierarchical modelling; geostatistical modelling.

I coordinate the Year 1 & 2 medical statistics teaching of the Oxford pre-clinical (First BM) course and an accredited short course on Clinical Prediction Rules.
