Eileen Minnie Brooke (1905 – 1989) was a British statistician and health policy professional.
Education
Eileen Minnie Brooke attended East London College, earning a B.Sc. in mathematics in 1926, and an M.Sc. in mathematics in 1929. She completed doctoral studies in 1952.[1]
In Great Britain, 1940s–1960s
In the 1940s, Brooke was based at the E. M. S. Statistical Branch in Norcross, and studied wartime health issues, including battle exhaustion,[2] burns,[3] and gastric ulcers.[4] She was elected a fellow of the Royal Statistical Society in 1943.[5]
In the 1950s, Brooke was a statistician in the Medical Statistics branch of the General Register Office.[6][7] She attended the Second World Congress of Psychiatry in Zürich in 1957, and presented a paper on schizophrenia.[8] She also attended the International Congress on Mental Health in Paris in 1961.[9]
Brooke was co-author of The survey of sickness, 1943 to 1952 (1957, with W. P. D. Logan),[10] and author of A cohort study of patients first admitted to mental hospitals in 1954 and 1955 (1963)[11][12] and A census of patients in psychiatric beds, 1963 (1967).[13]
International work, 1960s–1970s
Brooke spoke at a mental health conference in Pennsylvania in 1964.[14] She was chief of the Department of Medical Information and Statistics at the University Institute of Social and Preventive Medicine in Lausanne.[15][16] She was a collaborating investigator on the World Health Organization's International Pilot Study of Schizophrenia in the late 1960s.[17][18] In 1977 she spoke at an WHO workshop on "the medico-social risks of alcohol consumption" in Luxembourg.[16]
Brooke wrote and edited policy reports for the World Health Organization and other international bodies, including The methodology of psychiatric out-patient data collection (1973),[19] The current and future use of registers in health information systems (1974),[20][21] Suicide and attempted suicide (1974),[22] and Activities in the field of drug dependence (European region) (1975).[23]
Death
Brooke died in 1989. A colleague wrote in an obituary that "Miss Brooke was precious to WHO's programmes because she was a statistician who liked to assemble data, enjoyed handling them and had the ability to present them without ever losing sight of the broader context in which these data were gathered."[24] Her papers are held in the Mile End Library, Queen Mary University of London.[1]
