Ophthalmology

The Ophthalmic Research Group is led by Professor Catey Bunce, Royal Marsden Clinical Trials Unit Manager – Statistics & Training, Honorary Professor at the Faculty of Infectious & Tropical Diseases, London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine.

The OSG is a group of statisticians who have come together because of a common interest in ophthalmology. The group is open to members across the UK and beyond. The aspiration of the Ophthalmic Statistics Group is to “raise quality of statistics in ophthalmic publications”.

OSG achievements to date include:
