Overview
Background
Gabor is a biostatistician with more than 15 years of experience in clinical trials, epidemiology and population health research. His work focuses on the design, analysis and interpretation of health data to support evidence-based healthcare and policy. He specialises in clinical trial statistics, cluster-randomised trials, longitudinal data analysis and large population health studies. Gabor collaborates with multidisciplinary teams to design robust studies, develop statistical analysis plans and translate complex data into clear findings. He is available to co-supervise higher degree research students, particularly in projects with a substantial applied clinical or health research component where biostatistical expertise is required. Key areas of expertise include: clinical trial design and analysis; cluster-randomised trials; longitudinal and population health data; epidemiology and health services research; statistical programming and reproducible analysis (Stata, R).
