Researcher profile

Marc Chadeau-Hyam

Professor Chadeau-Hyam holds a chair in Computational Epidemiology and Biostatistics at the School of Public Health, Imperial College, and an honorary position at Utrecht University. He obtained a PhD From Paris University, and while his background was in disease modelling, he has gained expertise over the last 14 years in devising, applying and adapting computationally efficient methods to analyse and integrate multiple OMICs data. He has been involved in numerous large-scale projects as lead statistician, responsible for the analysis and integration of OMICs data. As an active member of the European exposome initiative, he has expertise in the development and application of statistical methods to screen and integrate OMICs profiles and explore the stressor- triggered molecular mechanisms involved in the determination of individual risk profiles. Alongside this applied work, he has focused on the development of dynamic disease models including OMIC variable selection methods to study the dynamics of cancer natural history. Professor Chadeau-Hyam is the director of the MSc in Health Data Analytics at ICL, and leads a series of two Exposome short courses. His team currently includes >15 members with a unique diversity of profiles, including medical, biological, and statistical backgrounds, all collaborating for the in-depth analysis of large-scale data from mega-sized and/or deeply phenotypes cohort studies.
