Prof. Robert W. Platt is the Principal Investigator of the Canadian Network for Observational Drug Effect Studies (CNODES), which provides timely and high-quality responses to queries on drug utilization, safety, and effectiveness from Health Canada and other federal and provincial stakeholders. The CNODES team includes over 100 researchers from across Canada.
I have an ongoing research program in development of statistical methods for pharmacoepidemiology and perinatal epidemiology. My current work focuses on generalizability and transportability of results in multi-database settings like CNODES.
My research focuses on statistical methods for epidemiologic research. Many statistical tools were not designed to address challenges of modern epidemiology, and are ill-suited for modern research. We would like to infer causation in complex problems, and we deal regularly with “big data” (e.g., large administrative databases of health care utilization). Traditional statistical methods can give biased or inefficient results in these situations. My team develops methods to address these problems and implements and evaluates these new methods in research problems in perinatal epidemiology and in drug safety.
