Top SchoolSuren Rathnayake is a Senior Analyst with over a decade of experience applying mathematical and statistical modeling to health and biomedical problems across government and academia. With a PhD in Biomedical Engineering from The University of Queensland, he has translated advanced research—mixture models, high-dimensional clustering, tensor factorization—into production-ready statistical software and policy-relevant analytics at organisations like AIHW, CIHI and the Australian Bureau of Statistics.

A background in electrical engineering and hands-on research fellow roles means he often bridges signal-processing intuition with population-level statistical inference.
