The workshop is suitable for who already have some experience of statistical analysis and who wish to be able to interrogate their data further using statistical modelling. To register a please email or Tel: 0131 537 3355 Introduction to Mixed Models Seminar Room, Edinburgh This workshop will provide an introduction to mixed (or multilevel) Student Rate (Matriculation Card Clinical Research Facility, models and emphasise their practical application to medical data Required) 28 June 2018 (1330-1630) Western General Hospital, with particular reference to clinical trials. Mixed models are a £24 Edinburgh useful tool for situations where there is more than one source of random variation (e.g. between and within patients) or a pattern of NHS/Uni Early Bird correlation between observations. Conventionally medical data is Rate paid before 17 analysed using fixed effects models (e.g. ANOVA, regression, May 2018 £36 general linear models, logistic regression), however benefits may often be gained by using a mixed model. For example: allowance NHS/Uni Rate paid can be made for the correlations occurring between repeated after 17 May 2018 observations on the same patient even if there are missing values; £48 in hierarchical datasets (e.g. patients grouped within hospitals) standard errors are more appropriate and incorporate all sources of variation; in some situations more accurate estimates will be achieved compared to a fixed effects model. The workshop will be most useful to those who already have some knowledge of statistical modelling techniques and wish to expand their knowledge to encompass mixed models. Attendance at the preceding Introduction to Statistical Modelling workshop is recommended for those requiring a recap on classical statistical modelling methods.
