Correlated random effects for longitudinal and survival analysis
Professor Robin Henderson
University of Lancaster
This talk will describe the use of a correleted gamma frailty model in
three application areas. The first is modelling spatial
variation in leukaemia survival using data from the North West Regional
Leukaemia Register. The frailty model is used to
investigate whether or not there is variation in survival across the
region, over and above that which can be explained by
measured risk factors. The second application is based on the analysis
of longitudinal count data from a trial on the use of
patient-controlled analgesia. The counts are requests for morphine in
four-hourly intervals and the frailty is used to describe
time-varying subject effects. The final application is also longitudinal
count data, on diarrhoea episodes from a Brazilian
sanitation study, this time complicated by the possibility of
informative dropout.

Subject: SEMINAR RSS Manchester Tuesday 4th Feb
Hello everyone
The next RSS Manchester meeting will be held at Xaverian College in
Rusholme on Tuesday 4th Feb 2003 at 2.30pm where David Percy will be
telling us all:
How to Win Games: Probability Models for Success
This is part of our outreach programme to local 6th form colleges and we
hope to have a good audience of potential statisticians as well as
practitioners.
A full synopsis is on our web site at www.rss-manchester.org, including
directions, maps and a printable HTML file for your noticeboard.
Unfortunately details were not finalised in time for the RSS Meetings Card
so don't look for it there.
We look forward to seeing you. For anyone that is interested there will
be a pre-meeting lunch in one of the excellent local restaurants. Email
me in private for arrangements.
