Associate Professor Ellis Patrick
School of Mathematics and Statistics
A/Prof Ellis Patrick is an applied statistician and bioinformatician. He is currently an Associate Professor in the School of Mathematics and Statistics, a Faculty member at The Westmead Institute for Medical Research and the Cluster Lead of Bioinformatics in the Sydney Precision Data Science Centre. He obtained his PhD in statistical bioinformatics in the School of Mathematics and Statistics at the University of Sydney and during his postdoctoral studies, he worked as a computational biologist with joint appointments at Brigham and Women's hospital, Harvard Medical School and The Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard.
A/Prof Patrick was awarded an ARC Discovery Early Career Researcher Award fellowship (2020 – 2022) and his research has since attracted over $12M in funding from the NHMRC, MRFF, NIH and other agencies. A/Prof Patrick has published over 50 manuscripts in high-impact journals with a H-index of 22 and a Field-weight-citation-index of 2.86. Further to this, he has developed nine software packages hosted on the Bioconductor project which is an international community platform for sharing software for the analysis of biomedical data in the R coding environment.
A/Prof Patrick’s research interests lie at the interface of statistics and biomedical data science where he specialises in developing and implementing innovative bioinformatics tools to enhance our understanding and treatment of human diseases. He has cultivated an extensive collaborative network and applies his expertise in extracting meaning from cutting-edge high-dimensional molecular and cellular assays to enable research into infectious diseases, organ transplant, cardiovascular disease, neurodegeneration, and cancer. The analytical challenges inherent in this disease-focused research necessitate the creation, evaluation, and sharing of advanced statistical methodology to support breakthrough discoveries.
A/Prof Patrick is passionate about training young researchers to address the critical shortage of bioinformatics expertise in Australia. He is currently mentoring 7 postgraduate students and has facilitated the timely completion of 2 PhD, 1 MPhil student and 7 Honours theses and mentored 1 Dalyell and 7 Denison Scholarship students. He currently chairs the Australian Bioinformatics and Computational Biology Society (ABACBS) Education and Training Subcommittee and sits on the Australian Mathematical Sciences Institute (AMSI) BioInfoSummer Standing Committee
