Bayesian Clinical Trial Design
Event Navigation
On Nov. 6 from 10:30 am – noon, presenter Joeseph Ibrahim, PhD, Alumni Distinguished Professor of Biostatistics, will speak on Bayesian sample size determination for a clinical trial in the presence of historical data that inform the treatment effect. He will discuss a broadly applicable, simulation-based methodology that provides a framework for calibrating the informativeness of a prior while simultaneously identifying the minimum sample size required for a new trial.
The NC TraCS Biostatistics Seminar Series provides more in-depth discussion of select biostatistical topics for clinical and translational researchers who have basic quantitative training in biostatistical methods. For questions, contact TraCS Biostatistics Research Associate Jeff Laux, PhD
