Overview

Organisers: Willi Sauerbrei (Freiburg DE), Els Goetghebeur (Ghent BE) | Ιn collaboration with the STRATOS Steering Committee

Details

The STRATOS (STRengthening Analytical Thinking for Observational Studies) initiative is a large collaboration of experts in many different areas of biostatistical research. It was launched at a halfday Mini-Symposium at ISCB 2013. The objective of STRATOS is to provide accessible and accurate guidance in the design and analysis of observational studies (www.stratos-initiative.org). We will present recent progress from some topic groups and discuss foci for the near future. Soon after the ISCB we will have our 3rd general meeting at the Lorentz Center in Leiden, Netherlands. Some of the talks look forward to cross topic groups research and include material from the preparation phase for this meeting.
