Adam Streeter, PhD
Research Fellow
Working Group: Epidemiological Methods
"I am a biostatistician working on clinical trials and observational studies, with a special interest in utilising health records and registry data for research. While clinical trials remain the gold standard for evidence, patient health records and health-insurance claims data can provide valuable insights into drug safety, advancing future therapies and ensuring existing therapies deliver optimal benefit to the patient. They may also help to make clinical trials more efficient, potentially reducing the number of patients needed for recruitment to often costly clinical trials. My therapeutic areas of interest span oncology, infectious disease epidemiology, vaccines, cardiology, diabetes, legal medicine and neurology.
I lead the STOPFlu (Statin Treatment OPtions during vaccination against influenza) project, which is developing advanced statistical methods for adjusting for unmeasured confounding bias in order to investigate how statins may modulate the effectiveness of the flu vaccine using electronic health records from the UK Clinical Practice Research Datalink. For this, I work closely with Exeter University in the UK and coordinate with the Vaccine Special Interest Group of the International Society of Pharmacoepidemiology."
