Tony Panzarella

 

I am currently the MSc Program Director in Biostatistics at the Dalla Lana School of Public Health, University of Toronto and the President of the Southern Ontario Regional Association (SORA) of the Statistical Society of Canada and Southern Ontario Chapter of the American Statistical Association.

 

Previously I worked at Princess Margaret Cancer Centre, Toronto, Canada, where I was the Manager of the Biostatistics Department since 1998, and a biostatistician since 1985. I graduated from the University of Toronto with an MSc in Applied Statistics in 1985. I have co-authored over 150 publications in clinical cancer research. I was the lead statistician for two international clinical trials sponsored by The Canadian Blood and Marrow Transplant Group. While at Princess Margaret, I was regularly involved in developing and teaching introductory statistics courses to residents, fellows and clinical researchers.

 

I have been affiliated with the Division of Biostatistics at the Dalla Lana School of Public Health since 2003, first as a status-only faculty, and since Jan. 2018 as faculty.
