Biography
Danny leads the Public Health research group and is programme director for the on-line MSc in Population Health Sciences. Danny’s research interests are in data science, big data and health informatics with a focus on the linkage and use of routine administrative data in describing emerging public health issues and in the evaluation of public health interventions. Recently he was awarded joint funding with the Institute of Neuroscience and Psychology to investigate football’s lifelong impact on health, funded by the Football Association. As an applied econometrician, Danny specialises in the application of advanced time series techniques to public health research with current work using time series methodology to investigate the role of climate and geophysical influences on chronic disease incidence and patterning.
Danny teaches on the MPH and MSc in Population Health Sciences.
