Introduction to Survival Analysis
****************************************
Dates: 7-9 October 2009. Duration: 3 days. Price: GBP 1005 (includes
textbook).
This course emphasises the practical aspects of analysing survival data and
interpreting models, but the underlying theory is explained as appropriate. In
practical sessions participants will be able to apply the methods covered to a
simulated clinical trial and to report on the results. The statistical package
SAS will be used to illustrate the methodologies in the lecture sessions and for
practical work. Stata may also be used for practical work.
General Linear Models
*******************************
Dates: 19-20 October 2009. Duration: 2 days. Price: 665 GBP.
This course will briefly present the theory of general linear models and discuss
their application and interpretation in problems of biological and medical
sciences and in pharmaceutical work. Many examples will be used to illustrate
a wide range of GLMs. Practical sessions based on SAS will help participants
understand the ideas involved.
Analysis of Mixed Models
********************************
Dates: 21-23 October 2009. Duration: 3 days. Price: 975 GBP.
How to fit linear mixed models, and interpret the results, for a range of
common situations is the subject of this course. The MIXED procedure of the
statistical package SAS will be used to illustrate ideas in the lectures and for
hands-on computer practical sessions.
