Rhian Daniel also has responsibility for checking the contents of the following journals to ensure that the highest quality research relevant to their own interests within these publications is comprehensively and systematically evaluated for F1000:

I studied mathematics at Queens' College Cambridge for four years before coming to the LSHTM in 2004 to study for an MSc in Medical Statistics. From 2005 until 2008 I studied for my PhD (also at the School, in the Medical Statistics Unit) in missing data methods under the supervision of Mike Kenward. In October 2008 I started a three-year postdoctoral research fellowship working with Simon Cousens and Bianca De Stavola on causal inference in epidemiology.

Teaching
I give the four probability lectures as part of the Foundations of Medical Statistics module on the MSc Medical Statistics course. I assist with the practicals for Robust Methods and Analysis of Hierarchical and Other Dependent Data, both on the MSc Medical Statistics course. I also assist with the missing data practicals for the short course on Causal Inference in Epidemiology: Recent Methodological Developments.
