| Missing Information in Survival Analysis Beyond Right Censoring | |
|
The workshop focuses on new methodological developments for survival data if specific information is absent.
Examples of missing information are interval-censoring, competing and semicompeting risks problems and frailty models. The three keynote speakers, Rick Chappell, Jianguo Sun and Jerry Lawless will discuss semicompeting risks, interval censoring and recurrent event analysis. Furthermore, there will be contributed sessions on these issues, but also on other topics dealt with in the IAP network, namely multivariate data with qualitative constraints, temporally and spatially related data, incomplete data, data with latent heterogeneity and highdimensional and compound data.
