"Frailty Models in Transplant Survival Analysis"
Dr Dave Collett
Senior Lecturer, University of Reading
In the assessment of graft survival times following an organ transplant,
survival rates and differences between transplant centres
are of particular concern. This talk focusses on the survival times of
transplanted kidneys. Some models for the graft survival
times, in which centre features as a random effect, or frailty, will be
described and illustrated. The models are then used to
examine the extent of differences between centres.
All welcome!!
