      I performed sub-group analysis on clinical trial data for TAVI products. I also conducted funnel and forest graphs for collected clinical report papers to generate historical results on end-point events for comparison. I compared first and second-generation TAVI products’ performance by conducting statistical tests, such as propensity score matching. All analysis is performed and presented on R and Python.
