Dr. Bradshaw’s research interests have centered on identifying factors related to survival and clinical outcomes among cancer survivors. He also has a keen interest in addressing quantitative methodological issues in chronic disease research, including methods to account for multiple correlated exposures, measurement error, and missing data. His current work includes investigations of the relationship between body composition and health outcomes, including the use of Bayesian methods for causal inference, missing data, and quantitative bias analysis.

He is an Associate Professor of Epidemiology at UC Berkeley's School of Public Health. His work has been published in The American Journal of Epidemiology, Epidemiology, Cancer Epidemiology, Biomarkers & Prevention, and Statistics in Medicine.  At Berkeley, he teaches courses in statistical and epidemiological methods.
