154th ICB SEMINAR

Eleventh International Seminar

on


STATISTICS AND CLINICAL

PRACTICE


May 11 - 13, 2017, Warsaw, Poland


Organised by

INTERNATIONAL CENTRE OF BIOCYBERNETICS


Seminar goals

The ICB Seminars "Statistics and Clinical Practice" held in Warsaw since 1994, have become a tradition as a meeting space for statisticians from various countries, dealing with problems related to medicine. Both scientific and didactic goals define a part of the Conference framework. The Seminar provides an opportunity for professional discussions among biostatisticians, while medical doctors are offered an opportunity to discuss statistical problems with leading experts in the field.

The following topics will be addressed during the Seminar:

  • prognostic models selection
  • exploratory analysis of big biomedical data sets
  • data mining methods in bioinformatics
  • meta analysis of biomedical data sets
  • new models in survival analysis
  • clinical epidemiology
  • scan statistics
  • study designs for individualized medicine
