Biography

Dr. Razzaghi holds a PhD in Statistics from the University of London in England. He has over 35 years of teaching and research experience in many universities and institutions of higher education in several countries around the world. His principle area of research is Environmental Statistics with particular reference to applications of statistical modeling and risk assessment in toxicological experiments

"Statistical Models in Toxicology is written by an author with extensive experienceworking in toxicology data analysis and in collaborating with colleagues at the National Center for Toxicological Research. (...) This book provides an introduction to a broad range of toxicological responses and the statistical analyses that might be used to analyze them. I appreciated the historical foundations provided for many of these analyses along with the discussion of modern methods being used for analyzing toxicological experiments for risk assessment including model averaging.
