Introduction
What this guide covers
Contemporary biomedical research faces data structures of unprecedented complexity. Longitudinal study designs, the presence of censored observations or competing risks, high-dimensional genomic profiles, and the unavoidable need to draw causal inferences from observational records demand mathematical tools of a rigorous standard.
Overview
Topics covered
- Introduction
