Dr. Bronwyn Loong

Biography

Bronwyn Loong is a lecturer at Australian National University, where she holds a BActStud and BComm from ANU and a PhD in Statistics from Harvard University. Her research interests lie in statistical disclosure control, focusing on the inability to access data which poses significant challenges for researchers. She explores statistical methods to modify original microdata dissemination while protecting disclosure risks, thereby preserving the analytic validity of original data. In her work, she addresses specific topics such as empirical assessment of disclosure risks, synthetic data techniques, and the development of flexible synthesis models applied in case studies. Loong also investigates the handling of missing data, examining related variables in studies, including survey responses and clinical trial data, and utilizes statistical methods to manage these issues effectively. Her approach combines theoretical and methodological research to provide solutions to real-world problems and engages in the supervision of research students.
