  Statistical analysis of time to event outcomes in clinical trials
University of Bath Department of Mathematical Sciences
  Dr J Bartlett
Application Deadline: 16 December 2018
Overview. Many clinical trials of new drugs or treatments involve recruiting patients into the trial, randomising them to one of the treatments under study, and measuring how long until each patient experiences an adverse event of interest, such as cancer progression, heart attack, or death.

  Encouraging retention in clinical trials (ERIC)
University of Manchester Faculty of Biology, Medicine and Health
  Dr S Cotterill, Dr S Peters, Prof A Vail
Applications accepted all year round
Clinical trials often require longer term follow-up measures, collected months or years after completion of the intervention. Such trials struggle to retain participants, leading to.
