Methods Labs
Pragmatic Clinical Trials Lab |
The Pragmatic Clinical Trials Lab aims to: |
1. Apply novel, data-driven statistical methods to evaluate heterogeneity of treatment effects across trials 2. Establish a core set of measures to be collected across trials (e.g., economic stability, social determinants of health) 3. Provide training and practical tools and resources to facilitate and accelerate pragmatic trials |
