Prof Andrew Simpkin

BA., PhD.

Biography

I am an Professor in Statistics at the School of Mathematical and Statistical Sciences at the University of Galway. My research focusses on longitudinal data analysis, functional data analysis, genomics and data science. I work on many interdisciplinary projects across medicine, engineering, biology, sociology and sports science. I'm interested in applied statistics and data science, developing methods and tools to work with people in a wide variety of disciplines. These collaborations often lead to questions which require novel theoretical statistical approaches.
