Richard Stevens BA, MSc, PhD

Richard Stevens is the course director of the MSc in Evidence-Based Health Care Medical Statistics, a continuing professional development course for those in full-time clinical practice seeking expertise in medical statistics. As a medical statistician, most of Richard Stevens's research, whether I'm leading the project or supporting colleagues, is intended for clinical journals. Much of Richard Stevens's research is with colleagues in the Oxford Centre for Monitoring and Diagnosis (MaDOx) on the monitoring of chronic diseases and on diagnosis and prognosis: the list of publications to the right is the best indicator of Richard Stevens's research interests. Richard Stevens is a statistical member (and, from 2016, Deputy Chair) of the Independent Scientific Advisory Committee (ISAC) that advises the MHRA on research with databases such as the Clinical Practice Research Datalink (CPRD), and an Associate Editor of the journal BMC Diagnostic and Prognostic Research.
