An Introduction to Joint Modelling of Longitudinal and Time-to-Event Data

Description

Course overview

Real world datasets often include both longitudinal data (data repeatedly measured over time) and time-to-event data (the time until a specified event occurs).  Often healthcare and research questions involve both longitudinal and time-to-event data.  Analysis of both data types simultaneously requires use of joint models for longitudinal and time-to-event data (joint models).  This course aims to provide grounding in the statistical concepts and methods for the simultaneous or joint analysis of longitudinal and time-to-event data.  Course participants will also learn to apply these methods using R software, as well as find out how to interpret their results.

Course participants are requested to bring along a laptop, with R pre-installed so that they can take part in the R computer practical.

Introduction to ANOVA

Description

This module is aimed at researchers in the laboratory and medical fields. It is suitable for those who have 
no previous experience of data analysis, as well as those seeking to refresh their skills. Understanding the assumptions
and characteristics of statistical methods is important in order to obtain the correct analysis and biological interpretation
of results.

In this workshop we introduce the issues and design concepts that need to be taken into consideration when planning a study using single, replicate or repeated test samples, or planning a simple dose-response study. The workshop will build on the standard hypothesis tests to consider situations where there are more than two comparator groups or more than one sample per subject.

Introduction to Clinical Prediction Models

Description

This course is aimed at researchers who require a basic understanding of prediction modelling as part of their research studies. It is suitable for those who have no previous experience of prediction modelling, as well as those seeking to refresh their skills.

Clinical prediction models combine multiple pieces of patient information in order to predict a clinical outcome. This full-day course includes lectures and practical sessions, and aims to give its delegates an introduction to the clinical reasoning and statistical methodology behind clinical prediction models.

Introduction to Logistic Regression

Description

This course is aimed at researchers within the Faculty of Health and Life Sciences. If participants do not already have a
basic understanding of statistical techniques, we recommend they also register for the three day course on statistical
issues in the design and analysis of research projects.

This course examines the application of models to predict a binary response variable from categorical and continuous predictor variables. Participants will also learn to apply these methods using SPSS software, as well as find out how to interpret their results.

Introduction to Longitudinal Data Analysis

Description

This course is aimed at participants who require a basic understanding of longitudinal data analysis as part of their research studies. It is suitable for those who have no previous experience of data analysis, as well as those seeking to refresh their skills.

Longitudinal data is obtained when a time-sequence of measurements is made on a response variable for each of a number of subjects in an experimental or observational study. This one-day course aims to give its delegates experience of the theory behind the statistical methods used for longitudinal data analysis.

Introduction to Meta-Analysis

Description

This one-day workshop is suitable for those who have no previous experience of meta-analysis, as well as those seeking to refresh their skills.
If participants do not already have a basic understanding of statistical techniques, we recommend they also register for the three day course on statistical issues in the design and analysis of research projects.

This workshop will introduce the basic principles of combining binary or continuous outcomes from randomised controlled trials using the statistical technique of meta-analysis. Investigating heterogeneity and the potential impact of publication bias will be discussed. The practicalities involved such as extracting data and interpreting meta-analysis will be explored in small group sessions.
