Samuel Hawley

Research Assistant in Epidemiology/Statistics

DPhil/PhD Student

Broadly speaking, I apply and develop epidemiological methods for observational health data research. Currently I'm working towards my DPhil using quasi-experimental approaches to estimate the impact of biologic therapy on the need for joint replacement among people with rheumatoid arthritis.

Prior to this I'd worked for two years as a statistician in the Health Services Delivery group here at NDORMS and assisted on various projects within the Pharmaco- and Device Epidemiology group. This work mainly related to treatments for osteoporosis and made use of various national and regional databases/registries. Before this I'd completed studies in physiology and epidemiology at Liverpool and Imperial College London.
