📢New PhD thesis live on Research Online! Latent class models for diagnostic test accuracy with application to fever aetiology by @SuzanneKeddie https://t.co/8bwryvK7Cy #Thesis #openaccess #Bayesian #fever #FIEBREstudy

I've recently started working with @globalADatlas. To find out more about the project check out their 2024 update report.

Latest systematic review in @BMCMedicine @BioMedCentral involving FIEBRE @TamaleeRoberts @SuzanneKeddie ⬇️ Accuracy of the direct agglutination test for diagnosis of visceral leishmaniasis: a systematic review and meta-analysis https://t.co/y4B5ID5h9Q @MORUBKK @TropMedOxford

What a great way to spend a Friday! Fascinating talks at #RSTMH2023 on the impact of AMR, AI and climate change on global health. Also great to be able to showcase some recent work with @KamlaPillay ,@LibbyFitchett and many more on #denguefever diagnostic test accuracy

📢FIEBRE sample archive available Contains various specimen types for cases & controls from > 10,000 participants with fever in 🇱🇦🇲🇼🇲🇿🇿🇼 Seeking partner to conduct high-quality research addressing essential public health needs. Submit an RFP by 31/10/23: https://t.co/swy1wQPSpx

I'm thrilled to announce that I am founding Henry Spatial Analysis, a mission-driven geography consulting firm focused on health and urban sustainability! Full announcement here, then a short 🧵: https://t.co/IjX89Tl1zX

Interested in estimates of #diagnostictest sensitivity and specificity from latent class models? Check out our new simulation study using @mcmc_stan

Excited to be part of the team looking at this data

Special thanks to co-authors @ Sophie Jullien and @flicfitzgerald along with everyone else involved.

The first part of my #PhD has been looking at Bayesian meta-analyses to estimate the sensitivity and specificity of diagnostic tests in the absence of a gold-standard reference test. Here we estimate the accuracy of the Luminex NxTAG RPP in detecting #Influenza viruses and RSV

Come and work with us @LSHTM We're looking for a medical statistician to work on FIEBRE & a study of seasonal #malaria chemoprevention & seasonal vaccination⬇️ https://t.co/wX7oU6yF44

Thrilled to announce the culmination of a multi-year project at @malariaatlas with @drsamirbhatt and @petergething: detailed time-series maps of insecticide-treated net access, use, and nets-per-capita in Africa from 2000 to 2020! @NatureComms 1/ https://t.co/OEF4PUmA3n

We're hiring! Join us at an exciting point as results analysis under way on large FIEBRE dataset. Looking for a statistician to help with this crucial stage of study: https://t.co/51ez1eO9Pj @LSHTM @LSHTM_GHA @LSTMnews @UniofOxford @TropMedOxford @ISGLOBALorg @LIDC_UK @LSHTM_TB

Our new paper "Mapping #malaria by sharing #spatial information between incidence and prevalence data sets" We compare a baseline model, a two step procedure (fit GP to prevalence and use as a covariate) and a full joint likelihood model. https://t.co/bfS7chbsJA

Our paper "Spatiotemporal mapping of malaria prevalence in Madagascar using routine surveillance and health survey data" is out today in @SciReports! Work with NMCP of Madagascar, @SuzanneKeddie, @emmacollins01, Ewan Cameron and many more @MalariaAtlas https://t.co/8KD3GJAHNO

Thanks for the welcome, excited to start!

Early in the #Covid_19 pandemic @WHO worked with @MalariaAtlas to asses potential impact of service disruption on #malaria. Countries successfully maintain key campaigns and avert first wave of negative consequences. But the challenge is far from over. https://t.co/IberIEtZau

We are hiring! 1 Senior Research Officer and 2 Analyst/Programmers Come and join the fast-growing #geospatial #health and development team @telethonkids Closing date 4th Sept! SRO - https://t.co/FjoOr5g2jC Analyst - https://t.co/786WT55aT2 https://t.co/GdcnjOafH1

Ooh! My first sole author article is now online! "A translucent box: interpretable machine learning in ecology" I'll do a longer thread later. tldr: how do we usefully interpret machine learning model fits in ecology (and evo etc.)? https://t.co/MEjNC9fVG2

Please install the newest version of malariaAtlas #RStats pkg (if you use it). @MalariaAtlas domain has changed. v1.0.0 has new domain. Old versions will stop working in August or so. #malaria
