SUMMARY:NIHR Oxford BRC Statistics Hub Lunchtime Seminar: What's so great about RCTs?
DESCRIPTION:This is the fourth in a series of eight lunchtime seminars organised by the NIHR Oxford BRC Statistics Hub. Each seminar is 20 minutes long followed by 10 minutes of Q&A\, and will be held via Microsoft Teams. These seminars are open to all in the University of Oxford and Oxford University Hospitals NHS Trust. \n \nWhat’s so great about RCTs? \nIoana Marian\, OCTRU Senior Statistician \nTuesday 3rd December 2024\, 1:00-1:30pm \nRandomised Controlled Trials (RCTs) are experiments that help establish which interventions (e.g. medical\, surgical\, or behavioural) are effective\, safe and can improve healthcare. Why RCTs are considered the ‘gold’ standard design for comparing medical treatments will be reviewed. The benefits of random allocation of treatments will be considered\, along with how to implement randomisation in practice. The importance of designing the study well and some of the common pitfalls to avoid will be presented in this session. \nNo registration is required. \nClick here to join the session.

SUMMARY:NIHR Oxford BRC Statistics Hub Lunchtime Seminar: Trial designs for early phase trials
DESCRIPTION:This is the third in a series of eight lunchtime seminars organised by the NIHR Oxford BRC Statistics Hub. Each seminar is 20 minutes long followed by 10 minutes of Q&A\, and will be held via Microsoft Teams. These seminars are open to all in the University of Oxford and Oxford University Hospitals NHS Trust. \n  \nTrial designs for early phase trials \nAlexander Ooms\, OCTRU Senior Statistician \nWednesday 6th November 2024\, 1:00-1:30pm \nEarly phase clinical trials are critical for assessing the safety\, dosage\, and preliminary efficacy of new treatments. This seminar will outline some available designs in Phase I and Phase II settings. \nPhase I trials primarily focus on determining safe dosages and identifying side effects using broad categories of ‘rule-based’ or ‘model-based’ dose escalation methods. \nPhase II trials typically aim to give an early indication of treatment efficacy and further assess safety via single-arm or randomised controlled trials. Adaptive\, occasionally Bayesian\, designs are popular in the early phase setting and some examples of adaptive designs will be discussed. \nNo registration is required. \nClick here to join the session.

SUMMARY:Masterclass: Developing blood-based longitudinal studies in low-resource settings – the challenge and opportunity
DESCRIPTION:Professor Sarah Lewington\nSpeaker: Prof Sarah Lewington\nDate: Thursday 9 May 2024\nTime: 1:00–2:00pm\nVenue: Richard Doll Lecture Theatre\, Oxford or online \nRegistration: forms.office.com/e/VKvWER5Czy \nIn recent years\, there has been a growing recognition of the need for more large-scale\, blood-based (‘biobank’) studies in non-European populations\, to understand the lifestyle\, environmental and genetic risk factors for cause-specific mortality and morbidity in diverse populations. \nThis talk will focus on aspects of developing such studies in low-resource settings and give some preliminary findings. \nThis is the first in a series of ‘masterclass’ talks organised by the Oxford BRC Cardiovascular Medicine Theme.

SUMMARY:NIHR Oxford BRC Virtual Symposium: Levelling Up
DESCRIPTION:Levelling up: Evidence-based approaches to reducing inequalities in health and access to care \nHosted by the Health Economics Research Centre. \nThe COVID-19 pandemic has exacerbated existing inequalities and given rise to new ones. Tackling health and economic inequalities effectively in the post-pandemic United Kingdom will require policies based on solid evidence. The purpose of this symposium is to provide a multi-disciplinary forum focusing on effective ways to ‘level up’\, from what is known to evidence gaps that future research should address. The symposium will bring together perspectives on these issues from leading health economists and epidemiologists. They will present recent evidence and discuss some of the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead. \nSpeakers include:  \n\nProf Richard Cookson (Centre for Health Economics\, University of York)\nProf Sandra Eldridge (Professor of Biostatistics and Director of the UKCRC Registered Pragmatic Clinical Trials Unit at Barts and The London School of Medicine and Dentistry)\nProf Robert Hills (Professor of Medical Statistics\, Oxford Population Health\, University of Oxford)\nProf Philip Clarke (Director\, Health Economics Research Centre\, Oxford Population Health\, University of Oxford)\nDr Laurence Roope (Health Economics Research Centre\, Oxford Population Health\, University of Oxford)\nMs Fiorella Parra-Mujica (Health Economics Research Centre\, Oxford Population Health\, University of Oxford)\nProf Helen McShane (Director\, Oxford NIHR Biomedical Research Centre).\n\nThe symposium is free and will be held via Zoom\, but you will need to register to receive the meeting link. \n

SUMMARY:Tackling COVID-19 together: Building a multi-disciplinary approach to help vaccinate the world
DESCRIPTION:The COVID-19 pandemic has generated an intense research effort\, which by one estimate has generated more than half a million research publications to date. Much of the COVID-19 research undertaken has been within traditional academic disciplines\, but tackling COVID-19 effectively\, and dealing with its long-term health and economic impacts\, will require a multi-disciplinary research effort. \nThe purpose of this symposium is to provide a multi-disciplinary forum focusing on effective ways to promote vaccine uptake and to ensure public support for the effort and resources required to vaccinate the world. The symposium will bring together perspectives of immunologists\, epidemiologists\, psychologists\, economists and political scientists on these questions. They will present the latest evidence and discuss the challenges and opportunities ahead. \nSee here for more details. \nThe symposium is free\, but you will need to register by following this link. \nSpeakers include: \nProf Sir Andrew Pollard (Director of the Oxford Vaccine Group\, University of Oxford) \nProf Mark Jit (Department of Infectious Disease Epidemiology\, London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine) \nA/Prof Mara Violato (Health Economics Research Centre\, Nuffield Department of Population Health\, University of Oxford) \nProf Daniel Freeman (Department of Psychiatry\, University of Oxford) \nProf Ray Duch (Director of Centre for Experimental Social Sciences\, Nuffield College\, University of Oxford) \nProf Mitesh Patel (Perelman Center for Advanced Medicine\, University of Pennsylvania\, USA) \nMs Susan Brown (Public Policy Engagement at GAVI\, the Vaccine Alliance) \nDr Laurence Roope (Health Economics Research Centre\, Nuffield Department of Population Health\, University of Oxford) \nProf Helen McShane (Director\, NIHR Oxford Biomedical Research Centre) \nProf Philip Clarke (Director\, Health Economics Research Centre\, Nuffield Department of Population Health\, University of Oxford) \nProf Michael Parker (Director of ETHOX\, University of Oxford) \nProf Sir Peter Horby (Epidemic diseases Research Group\, University of Oxford). \n
