Alice Rogot Pressman, MS, PhD, is a staff scientist and has been with the Kaiser Permanente Northern California Division of Research since 1996. After a short-lived and feeble attempt at actuarial work (she found the suits horribly uncomfortable), she earned an MS in statistics at the University of Wisconsin, Madison in 1990. For the next 15 years, she worked as a statistician/programmer first at the University of California, San Francisco and then at Kaiser’s Division of Research where her research interests focused on aging and women’s health including osteoporosis, and prescription drug use. In the past few years, her research has evolved to include complementary medicine, and clinical trials methodology. In 2009, she received her PhD in epidemiology from the University of California, Berkeley. Her dissertation compared Bayesian methods of clinical trials with frequentist group sequential methods. Her extra-curricular interests include teaching, baking, chocolate, spear fishing and her two children.
