thanks Paul and Janet
this is my first contribution to this group. I am not attending the
conference this year.
I would be particularly interested in the assessment of learning in the
understanding of the behavior of diagnostic tests: and the evaluation of
articles about diagnosis.
If this is the wrong place to contribute this thought, my apologies. Any
suggestions gratefully received.
best wishes
