Outline
of Research and Clinical Interests |
| My
clinical interest in Gynaecology is in vaginal surgery, and in
Obstetrics I am most interested in Labour Ward management. I teach the
former at the postgraduate level, and much of my personal research
involves the latter. My research interests include the epidemiology of
fetal birthweight and the pathophysiology of fetal distress. In support
of research in these areas, I have developed knowledge and skills in
numerical methods, probability and statistical methods, signal analysis,
and neural networks. |
