Jordi Real
I am a Biostatistician (5-year degree) with a PhD in health research and with extensive work experience in health clinical research field: Data analyst, and statistics applied to epidemiology research, calculation and design of samples, multivariable models, matching methods, causal inference, scientific articles and research protocols, as well as simulation studies. At a methodological level, I have been working in some problems such as, for example, the implementations of functions to integration longitudinal data according one design optimally to reduce the bias. I also provide statistical supervision to other statisticians, technicians, and PhD students. I have also created R packages and a web-app in R-shiny to visualize longitudinal data.
I am currently working at Barcelona Institute for Primary Health Care Research Jordi Gol i Gurina IDIAPJGol , where I have accumulated long experience (since 2007) as a statistical consultant to primary care research (Family statistician).
