London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine #StataBio24 presenter Betty Syriopoulou from Biostatistics Group at MEB, Karolinska Institutet showed how to perform mediation analysis in the relative survival framework using the stpm3 and standsurv commands; she demonstrated the approach by exploring cancer survival differences across socioeconomic groups.

New MSc in Population Health Data Science! Want to *robustly* analyse population health data? Strong fundamentals in study design, data quality, version control. Bells and whistles of machine learning on top. First intake this September. le.ac.uk/courses/popula… #RStats #AI

Research by Nick Latimer and colleagues shows that forcing a marginal hazard ratio to 1 does not accurately assess mean survival difference under individual-level treatment effect waning. More at ow.ly/gHFY50QO0yc. #HEOR #HTA #harzardratio #ValueinHealth

Applications are now open for this new course at Biostatistics: Uni of Leicester. A complementary course to our long-established MSc in Medical Statistics, with extra emphasis on key data science skills, whilst retaining the robustness offered by statistical thought processes.

Registration for YSM 2024 is now open! Early-bird tickets are available until 7th June. Visit our website to grab your ticket now: sites.google.com/view/youngstat…
