The Statistical Working Party
The STATs WP was established to help design the LAB WP studies and analyse the data arising from them. The group also pursues systematic reviews of studies on Aspergillus PCR and explores issues related to the validity and utility of these tests.

Rosemary Barnes is Clinical Reader in Medical Microbiology and acting head of the Department of Infection, Immunity and Biochemistry at the School of Medicine at Cardiff University.
She qualified from Cambridge University and Westminster Medical School.
Her research interests include infections in immunocompromised patients. A particular focus is the rapid diagnosis of invasive fungal infection and the impacts this has on the optimal use of antifungal agent and patient outcomes.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_text_separator title=”Prof Juergen Loeffler, PhD” title_align=”separator_align_left” color=”grey” style=”dotted”][vc_single_image image=”193″ border_color=”grey” img_link_target=”_self”][vc_column_text]
