Dear Colleagues:
I shall be proposing an invited session for the 2024 Society for Clinical Trials Meeting, Boston, 5/19-5/22. The theme is the narrow question: For tabular outcome data from a set of randomized clinical trials, should you employ the mainstream (weights inversely proportional to the estimated variance) or ratio estimation methods (as borrowed from survey sampling). My deadline for the session submission is 10/25/2023.
If you are interested in being a presenter or discussant, please let me know as soon as possible. The format (debate or panel discussion) will be determined from your responses. Please include your contact information, including e-mail address, phone, and institution.
Best wishes,
Jonathan J. Shuster, PhD
