Professor Tilling main areas of expertise are in methods for
analysing exposures and outcomes across the life-course, and in methods for dealing with missing data. She has a mathematical background, an MSc in Applied Statistics and a PhD in Epidemiology, together with more than 15 years’ experience working in academic public health and epidemiology. Prof Tilling enjoys interpreting and explaining results from more complex statistical methods to other researchers and members of the public and using all forms of the media to effectively promote public health
messages.
Areas of interest:
Childhood growth;
Life-course analyses;
Trajectories of change in disease outcomes
(E.g. PSA in prostate cancer, EDS in Multiple Sclerosis;
Complex inter-relationships which change over time
(E.g. fat mass and physical activity, risk factors for CHD;
Methodological interests:
Methods to examine and correct for bias due to missing data;
Structural equation models, particularly for longitudinal data; Multilevel models for growth trajectories;
Fractional polynomial and linear spline models
Time-varying confounding - marginal structural models and g-estimation
