Prof Richard Morris

Research Summary

As a medical statistician, my primary interest is in application of statistical techniques to questions of substantive clinical or public health importance. I work with the British Regional Heart Study group, on a cohort study of middle aged British men across Britain. The study began in 1978 and subjects have been closely followed ever since, yielding a wealth of data on determinants of cardiovascular disease in the population. I am interested to appraise and quantify the contribution of established cardiovascular risk factors to variations in disease burden between subgroups in the population; including subgroups defined by place of residence or socio-economic status within Great Britain. I am particularly interested in recent declines in cardiovascular mortality rates and to elicit the contributions of risk factor changes in the population, as well as the contribution of medical care. I have also developed a recent interest in population genetics and its potential to elicit causal pathways in cardiovascular disease. Accordingly I am now involved in large scale collaborations at UCL to use population based cohort studies for this purpose.
