CLRES 2025 - DESIGN AND ANALYSIS OF BIOMARKER STUDIES

Minimum Credits: 1
Maximum Credits: 1
The objective of this course is to identify, describe and apply the statistical and epidemiological knowledge, tools and perspectives necessary for effectively designing, analyzing and interpreting biomarker studies. Only a brief introduction is provided on clinical and laboratory aspects of biomarker development as these issues are typically very specific to the individual's field of interest; instead, the course will focus on the study design and associated analysis issues given a particular biomarker, or panel of biomarkers, and a corresponding set of clinical outcomes in a manner that is generalizable to a wide range of research studies. Although applications and perspectives will somewhat focus on cancer research, the described methods are broadly applicable to a range of clinical and epidemiological settings.
