Informational poster introducing Dr. Maurice O’Connell, Research Associate at the University of Manchester and DynAIRx. The right side features his professional portrait against a background of blue and orange circular patterns. Logos for the University of Liverpool and DynAIRx appear at the top, with NIHR and Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust logos at the bottom. Text highlights Maurice’s work in developing causal inference models to uncover patterns in healthcare data, supporting safer prescribing for people with multiple long-term conditions and polypharmacy.
Meet Dr Maurice O'Connell @mauriceoconnell.bsky.social, research associate in statistics @manchester.ac.uk. Maurice bring deep expertise in causal inference, machine learning, counterfactual prediction and decision theory to DynAIRx - helping us understand what works, for whom, and why. #Statistics
