– University of Bristol

MRC Integrative Epidemiology Unit

We have an active collaboration with Professor George Davey Smith, head of the MRC Integrative Epidemiology unit at the University of Bristol. With more than 1000 peer-reviewed academic publications, he has been highly successful in multiple fields of epidemiology, from life-course epidemiology and the population health contributions of the new genetics to systematic reviewing of evidence of effectiveness of health care and health policy interventions. He has been highly successful in developing novel causal analysis methods in population-based and clinical health sciences. Of particular relevance to our collaboration, he has pioneered the development of Mendelian Randomization analyses, a novel technique that utilizes genetic variation to examine causal associations in observational studies.
