Ines Rombach
Senior Medical Statistician
Passionate about improving the handling and reporting of missing data in randomised controlled trials
As a statistician within the Oxford Clinical Trials Research Unit (OCTRU), I am involved in all aspects of clinical trials.
I contribute statistical expertise to the development of grant applications and to the planning, conduct and analysis of primarily orthopaedic, surgical and antimicrobial trials.
I also hold a researcher post in the Health Economic Research Centre (HERC), where I work on cost-effectiveness analyses alongside randomised controlled trials.
My research interests include the handling and reporting of missing data in randomised clinical trials, the use of patient reported outcomes and surgical trials methodology.
I have been involved in Data Monitoring and Safety Committees as the independent statistician and regularly teach a variety of topics, including aspects of clinical trial design, statistical concepts and statistical programming in Stata.
