Statistical Modeling for Clinical Study Design
My combined background in the health sciences and statistics allows me to assure that clinical and biological realities are represented as accurately as possible by the statistical models and methods that I recommend.
To illustrate the importance of considering the interplay between statistical models and clinical-biological realities, the Study Design page and its linked resources present examples of thoughtful use of statistical models to improve the design of clinical studies, with a focus on comparative effectiveness research.
