Jessica Barrett

I am a statistician working at the Cardiovascular Epidemiology Unit in the Department for Public Health and Primary Care. My research interests include meta-analysis, survival analysis and longitudinal data analysis. I have worked on methods for the joint modelling of longitudinal and survival data, applied to lung function and survival in cystic fibrosis patients. Other research interests include the meta-analysis of survival data, network meta-analysis and multi-state models. I am currently working on statistical methods for incorporating repeat measurements of risk factors into risk prediction for cardiovascular disease.
