- Save The Date! Our Spring Workshop will be held on Wednesday, May 15th at the Wyndham Glenview Suites in Glenview, IL, and will feature Professor Brad Carlin, Mayo Professor in Public Health and Head of the Division of Biostatistics at the University of Minnesota.
The workshop will be given on the topic of Bayesian Methods for Data Analysis. This one-day short course introduces Bayesian methods, computing, and software, and goes on to elucidate their use in Phase I and II clinical trials, as well as meta-analysis of current and historical trials. We include descriptions and live demonstrations of how the methods can be implemented in BUGS, R, and versions of the BUGS package callable from within R.
Registration information and further details will be available in the upcoming Spring Issue of our chapter newsletter, STATFAX.
