Project description:

Meta-analysis is a collection of statistical methods aimed at combining the results of several studies in order to improve the accuracy of decisions. The goal of meta-analysis is to provide the evidence base for decision making in various scientific fields, including medicine, social and environmental sciences. Available PhD projects in the area of meta-analysis include development of multivariate methods of meta analysis, and the detection of temporal trends. Multivariate methods of meta-analysis. Often the studies provide several outcomes (results of several tests) and therefore the multivariate methods of meta-analysis need to be developed and applied. Additionally, different sets of tests may be present in different studies and the published results are often adjusted for a number of confounders which may differ across studies. Possible presence of various types of bias further complicates the aggregation of the results. This project will develop new statistical methods of multivariate meta-analysis with a choice of applications to environmental sciences, economics or medicine.

Faculty of Epidemiology and Population Health
London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine
We are looking for a highly motivated candidate for a PhD studentship funded by Kidney Research UK:

Clinical management of those with pre-dialysis chronic kidney disease (CKD) focuses on prevention of cardiovascular outcomes. However, the association of CKD with increased mortality is not only driven by cardiovascular deaths, but also by non-cardiovascular deaths.
