About
I’m a Senior Lecturer in the Department of Medicine at the University of Cape Town, and Extraordinary Lecturer in the Faculty of Veterinary Sciences at the University of Pretoria. I am also an associate member of eera – the epidemiology, economics and risk assessment group at the Roslin Institute, Edinburgh.
I run/am the statistical consulting unit for the Dept. of Medicine at UCT, if you are a researcher in the department and looking for statistical analysis you should go here.
I’m also looking for MSc and Phd students to work on some problems in statistics with applications to the medical field. See my research page for more information.
The links to pages should be self explanatory, with the exception of the UG Thesis class, which is a latex class developed to format documents to adhere UG Thesis submission requirements. Bear in mind I don’t track possible changes to regulations and this package has not been updated in a number of years.
I have previously worked at the University of Edinburgh, Institutes of Evolutionary Biology, Immunology and Infections Research and the University of Edinburgh, Roslin Institute and at the Institute of Mathematics, Helsinki University of Technology where I mainly did research on infectious disease modeling and model based clustering. I completed my PhD in 2009 in the Department of Mathematics and Statistics at the University of Guelph, Canada with research on statistical inverse problems.
I can be contacted, by email preferably, at lesosky [at] gmail [dot] com.
