Dr Deirdre Toher

I am an applied statistician here at UWE.  My research projects are mainly collaborative in nature.  

I am programme leader for BSc Mathematics and Statistics and for MMath Mathematics.

​Prior to coming to UWE in 2009, I completed my PhD in Trinity College Dublin, working on developing statistical methods for use in food authentication. I have also worked for a market research company. My undergraduate degree was in Mathematics, also from Trinity College Dublin.

Some of the modules that I currently teach on include Statistical Modelling; Mathematical Statistics and Multivariate Statistical Modelling.

I am involved in the Royal Statistical Society and am the Secretary of the Emerging Applications Section. I am also one of the RSS's Statistical Ambassadors.​
