Events

This workshop aims to enhance your knowledge and skills in regression analysis techniques, empowering you to derive meaningful insights from health-related data.

Key Techniques Covered:

• Linear Regression: Unravel the linear association between a continuous outcome variable and one or more predictor variables.
• Logistic Regression: Explore the factors influencing the likelihood of binary outcomes (e.g., disease presence/absence).
• Survival Analysis: Gain insights into the time it takes for an event (e.g., recovery, death) to occur, using techniques like:
  • Kaplan-Meier Estimation: Visualize the probability of event-free survival over time.
  • Log-Rank Test: Statistically compare survival curves between groups.
  • Cox Proportional Hazards Regression: Identify factors that influence the risk of an event over time, independent of when the observation began.

Benefits for Clinical Researchers:

• Gain a deeper understanding of treatment effects and patient risk factors.
• Develop robust statistical models for predicting clinical outcomes.
• Communicate research findings effectively with clear and interpretable results.
