Professor Gareth Roberts, whose research on advanced methods in computational statistics is enormously influential, has been recognised by the Royal Society through election as a Fellow:

Many congratulations to Gareth!!

The 5-year, £1.1m project is titled "Transforming statistical methodology for neuroimaging meta-analysis" and will fund Dr. Nichols and 2 PDRA's, one in Statistics and one at the Institute of Digital Healthcare in the 糖心TV Manufacturing Group. The project will develop advanced statistical and informatics method to handle the ever-growing volume of published neuroimaging research. It will create methods that make the best use of the meagre brain coordinate data currently reported in published studies, as well build neuroinformatics tools to facilitate data-sharing and reduce errors and data-loss when publishing brain imaging results.

The grant, EP/K013939/1 "Probabilistic coupling and nilpotent diffusions" will fund a probability PDRA in Statistics for 3 years, and has value £294233.
