This week-long, project-based course aims to provide students with an understanding of advanced methods used in decision-analytic modeling and cost-effectiveness analyses. These include topics like the latest methods for calibration and validation, quantifying uncertainty, and consideration of heterogeneity of patient benefits and equity issues. The course combines lectures and readings to give theoretical foundation and perspectives with in depth project work and presentations to give practical concrete understanding in a way that furthers students\u2019 specific research goals.<\/p>\n
Course Structure:
\nEach day will begin with a lecture by Professor Goldhaber-Fiebert on an advanced methods topic. After the lecture, lab sessions will commence with students working on their projects as Professor Goldhaber-Fiebert circulates through the room and students assist each other in a collaborative environment. Most days Professor Goldhaber-Fiebert will also give an afternoon lecture. In addition, at the end of days 2, 3, and 4, Professor Goldhaber-Fiebert will give an additional, shorter, informal lecture (i.e., “a chalk talk”) on a methods topic tailored to specific issues that are arising within students\u2019 projects. Additionally, throughout the week, Professor Goldhaber-Fiebert will have one-on-one meetings with students about their projects.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-3287","cursus","type-cursus","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
