Randomised Controlled Trials course: a practical guide to RCT design,
conduct, analysis, interpretation & reporting
Date: 26th to 30th March 2007
Venue: Oriel College, Oxford
This 5-day course is co-organised by Prof. Doug Altman, Director of
the Centre for Statistics in Medicine (CSM), Ed Juszczak (senior
medical statistician, CSM), Prof. John Geddes, Director of the Centre
for Evidence-Based Mental Health and Prof. Mike Clarke, Director of
the UK Cochrane Centre. The aim of the course is to equip the
participants with an appreciation of the knowledge and practical
skills required to design, execute, analyse, interpret, report and
critique a randomised controlled trial.
The course will adopt an innovative, multidisciplinary approach,
integrating clinical epidemiology with biostatistics. The teaching
will adopt a mixture of styles, including didactic and highly
interactive sessions and will use problem-based learning with the aim
of solving learner-identified problems in the design, analysis,
interpretation, reporting and critique of randomised trials. The
course is NOT intended to serve as an introduction to medical
statistics itself.
The course is aimed at persons planning or actively involved in
trials, and individuals interested in furthering their knowledge of
trial methodology. Applications are invited from clinical and
non-clinical researchers and other professionals allied to medicine.
