    Hi ASA Connect,

    The newest episode of the show is now out. Mona Kanaan and Ada Keding at York University walk us through the key points of the Stepped-Wedge Trial in advance of the Third international Conference on Stepped Wedge Trial Designs (York, UK, March 16-17). A friendly introduction to a different type of trial design.

     

    Why should data scientists and statisticians watch this episode?

    • Our clinical science is only as strong as our ability to conduct clinical experiments.
    • While the randomized controlled trial is the gold standard of trials, there are many alternative designs out there worth knowing.
    • Mona and Ada discuss the clinical settings that are ideal for this particular design.
    • Mona and Ada discuss the effect of patient recruitment on appropriateness of the trial design.
