We’re now ready to start the advertisement for our short course on Statistical Methods for the Value of Information Analysis (I’ve posted about this here). The course will be at UCL from the 8th to the 9th of June, later this year. I think we have been lucky to secure some funding and so it will be relatively cheap $-$ it’s also conveniently a week before the SMDM conference, so we’re hoping that some people may be travelling to London a little earlier to join us!
The first day will be much less technical and applied and in fact we are allowing a larger number of participants (up to 70) $-$ I think this may be interesting to people working in health economics and regulatory agencies, as well as those leading in trials designs and implementation. The second and third day will be much more technical and applied (that’s why we are considering a maximum of 30 participants) and we’ll have lots of computer practicals. I think these two days will be of more interest to statisticians and modellers.
Anna has made a very nice flyer which contains all the relevant information. But I’m also copying this right here:
