Dear all, The next seminar in our series of statistics talks for people interested in quantitative methods in biology and medicine will take place on this Thursday 4 May 2017 at 14:00 (unusual time!), in the Salle Delachaux (Biopôle 2, first floor, Route de la Corniche 10, 1010 Lausanne, M2: Vennes). The speaker will be Dominik Grathwohl (Nestlé Research Center, Lausanne). Title: Statistical principles of clinical trials Abstract: Statistical principles of clinical trials is the title of the international conference of harmonization (ICH) guideline E9, a key document for statistics in a regulated environment. This talk is inspired by the guideline and tries with illustrative examples to shade light on those principles. Hope to see you there! Valentin (for the organizers: Jérôme Goudet, Valentin Rousson, Frédéric Schütz)
