- Fusing microarray experiments with multivariate regressionWalter R Gilks
MRC Biostatistics Unit, Cambridge, UK
Bioinformatics 21:ii137-43. 2005..Also, the variability in the quality of experimentation should be taken into account...
- The versatility of multi-state models for the analysis of longitudinal data with unobservable featuresVernon T Farewell
MRC Biostatistics Unit, Institute of Public Health, Robinson Way, Cambridge, CB2 0SR, UK
Lifetime Data Anal 20:51-75. 2014..In addition, joint modelling of multiple processes is illustrated with application to potentially informative loss to follow-up, mis-measured or missclassified data and causal inference. ..

MRC Biostatistics Unit, Institute of Public Health, Robinson Way, Cambridge CB2 0SR, UK
Stat Med 30:3520-31. 2011..We examine the bias in estimating effects associated with other variables via simulation for different modelling choices. We present an analysis of a motivating data set on physical functional disability in psoriatic arthritis patients...

Medical Research Council, Institute of Public Health, Robinson Way, Cambridge CB2 2SR, UK
BMC Bioinformatics 6:234. 2005..Furthermore, biases may be introduced into analyses through missing information on some genes. Thus methods for appropriately replacing (imputing) missing data and/or weighting poor quality spots are required...
