Description

This session presents various innovative statistical methods developed in epidemiology, including robust variance estimation for matched case control design with the Cox proportional hazards model, comparison and estimation of correlation for left-censored data, a GEE approach for modeling of multiple binary outcomes, estimation of vaccine efficacy and relative difference, as well as research in population attributable risk estimation.
