Matthew Bagg

Matthew is a clinical scientist completing his doctorate on the RESOLVE Trial. A major theme in his research is meta-analysis, which combines the results of studies in order to provide more information than is possible from a single study. Matt has used meta-analysis to understand the effect of low back pain on brain structure and biochemistry.

Using network meta-analysis, Matt’s research also aims to establish which medications for low back pain are most effective and best tolerated. This series of studies will use published clinical trial information to create a hierarchy of medicines to guide clinical decision-making.
