How can Bayesian methods help us learn more from Studies Within A Trial (SWATs)? Find out here where we explore how Bayesian methods and ACCEPT analysis help us get more meaningful insights from SWATs: https://t.co/As9SeOqPpv #Trials#TrialMethodology#SWAT#BayesianStatistics
It provides evidence that there is still a lack of uptake of the estimand framework in RCTs & how clear guidance on how to implement the estimand framework to trials with an adaptive design is needed
In 2024 we hosted Hannah Wallace and Fran Piazza as part of the NIHR Undergraduate Internship Programme and NIHR RSS Imperial College London & Partners Hub - this review summarises the findings from their research project!
Last week we enjoyed Victoria Cornelius's Inaugural lecture!
Under pressure: smarter trials for better health outcomes - covering traditional trials to Bayesian, adaptive, and decentralised approaches.
