Inference

The research focus of this group is the development of appropriate statistical and computational methodology for diverse applications including Systems Biology, Machine Learning and Statistical Pattern Recognition. The group currently consists of five post doctoral research associates and eight PhD students. We are currently (2009) recruiting a further two post doctoral research associates and one PhD student.

The group is funded by the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC), Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council (BBSRC), The Medical Research Council (MRC), Microsoft Research and NCR ltd. Current funding levels exceed GBP 1.8M.

Across the University, the group has strong ongoing collaborations with the Division of Plant Sciences, Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, The Beatson Institute for Cancer Research and the Departments of Statistics and Psychology.
