An Integrated Shiny App for a Course on Repeated Measurements Analysis

I will be teaching a course on statistical regression models for repeated measurements data, and I thought of creating a shiny app to let students run the code used in the course and examine the output in real time.

The app is still in development mode (Chapter 5 is still missing), but you may give it a try, and let me know of any feedback/comments you may have.

More information on installation requirements and how to invoke is available on my GitHub page.

Two Presentations about Joint Models

Packages JM and JMbayes @ JSM2015

This year JSM features an interesting invited session about fitting joint models in different software packages -- if you're interested drop by...

Here are my slides in which I give a short intro in packages JM and JMbayes:




Personalized Screening Intervals for Longitudinal Biomarkers using Joint Models

This presentation shows a new methodological framework for optimizing screening intervals for longitudinal biomarkers using the framework of joint models for longitudinal and time-to-event data; more information can be found on arXiv.

Here are the slides:
