Trosolwyg
Rwy'n Gydymaith Ymchwil mewn Ystadegau yn y Ganolfan Ymchwil Treialon ym Mhrifysgol Caerdydd lle rwyf wedi gweithio ers mis Medi 2014. I ddechrau, ymunais ag Uned Treialon Canser Cymru a unodd yn ddiweddarach ag unedau treialon eraill ym Mhrifysgol Caerdydd i ddod yn Ganolfan Treialon Ymchwil. O'r herwydd, fy mhrif feysydd o ddiddordeb yw treialon tiwmor a haematoleg solet. Rwyf wedi datblygu cyfoeth o brofiad dros y blynyddoedd wrth ddatblygu a chynnal treialon clinigol canser, o geisiadau cyllido cychwynnol a dylunio treialon clinigol, trwy ddatblygu cyn y treial gan gynnwys Ffurflenni Adroddiad Achos, metadata a datblygu cronfa ddata, mae'r cam recriwtio yn cynnwys monitro data yn ganolog ac adrodd i Bwyllgorau monitro Data Annibynnol, glanhau data cyn dadansoddiad terfynol, cyflwyno crynodebau i gynadleddau a chyhoeddiadau terfynol mewn cyfnodolion o fri rhyngwladol. Rwy'n uwch ystadegydd ar dreialon ac yn goruchwylio ystadegwyr iau yn y prosiectau hyn.
Rwyf wedi gweithio am flynyddoedd lawer fel Rheolwr Data mewn Haematoleg Glinigol ac mae gen i brofiad helaeth o dreialon Clinigol Haematoleg o ochr yr ysbyty yn ogystal â'r ochr Treialon Dat.
Mae gennyf BSc (Anrh) mewn Gwyddorau Biolegol gyda Biocemeg, PhD mewn Biocemeg (Prifysgol Birmingham) a Meistr mewn Iechyd y Cyhoedd (Prifysgol Caerdydd). Rwyf wedi cynnal Cymrodoriaethau Ymchwil Ôl-ddoethurol mewn Bioleg Foleciwlaidd a Geneteg.

Ymchwil
Fy niddordebau ymchwil yw treialon clinigol mewn oncoleg, tiwmorau solet a haematoleg.
Fel ystadegydd treial, rwy'n cymryd rhan mewn treialon clinigol, o ddylunio treialon hyd at ddadansoddiad terfynol a chyhoeddi, gan gynhyrchu dadansoddiad interim ar gyfer pwyllgorau monitro data a monitro data yn ganolog.
Ar hyn o bryd rwy'n gweithio ar dreialon Cam 1-3 mewn lewcemia lymffoblastig acíwt, canser y croen, canser rhefrol, mesothelioma plewrol, canser yr ysgyfaint, canser yr oesoffageal, atal COVID mewn cleifion imiwnoataliedig a chanser endometrial.
Rwyf hefyd yn aelod Annibynnol ar Bwyllgorau Llywio Monitro Data a Threial.
