Dr Louise Marquart-Wilson is a Senior Lecturer and Senior Research Fellow in the School of Public Health at the University of Queensland. She completed her PhD in 2016 at the University of Queensland with a thesis entitled 'Misspecification and flexible random effect distributions in logistic mixed effects models applied to panel survey data'. Her undergraduate qualifications include a Bachelor of Economics and a Bachelor of Science from the University of Queensland, as well as a Bachelor (Honours) of Applied Science from Queensland University of Technology. Marquart-Wilson's research focuses on generalised linear mixed effects models and their applications in public health and medicine. Specific interests encompass the impact of violating GLMM assumptions, linear and non-linear mixed effects models for malaria parasite dynamics, segmented mixed effects models for interrupted time series analyses, and methods for analysing repeated measures from patient-reported outcomes. She is recognised for expertise in biostatistics, including longitudinal analysis and statistical methodology.
Marquart-Wilson has produced 118 works, including journal articles on cancer epidemiology and survivorship, antimalarial efficacy, infectious disease surveillance, and statistical tools. Key publications include 'blandaltman: a command to create variants of Bland–Altman plots' (The Stata Journal, 2023), which introduces Stata commands for enhanced plotting; 'Use of an emulated trial to investigate the association between use of nitrogen-based bisphosphonates and risk of epithelial ovarian cancer' (International Journal of Epidemiology, 2024); 'Characterizing the pharmacological interaction of the antimalarial combination artefenomel-piperaquine in healthy volunteers with induced blood-stage Plasmodium falciparum malaria' (BMC Medicine, 2024); 'Preventing bloodstream infections through effective surveillance, AUDIT and FEEDBACK: evaluation of a 20-year hospital program using a type-I hybrid design' (Antimicrobial Resistance and Infection Control, 2026); and 'Eating frequency, timing of meals, and sleep duration before and after a randomized controlled weight loss trial for breast cancer survivors' (Journal of Cancer Survivorship, 2026). She contributes to NHMRC and MRFF-funded projects, such as the Enhancing Women's Recovery after Cancer Treatment Program (RECENTRE) and 'Moving without fear when living with stoma: A consumer-led physical activity study'. Marquart-Wilson supervises doctoral students on breast cancer topics, peer-reviews for Statistical Methods in Medical Research, and holds membership in the Statistical Society of Australia.
