The Yale School of Public Health Biostatistics Department and the R
Consortium are hosting a conference titled R/Medicine on September 7-8 in New
Haven, CT.
The goal of the R/Medicine conference is to promote the use of the R
programming environment and the R ecosystem in medical research and
clinical practice. R, the open source language for statistical
computing and data visualization, has also become an effective tool
for enabling reproducible research and the communication of scientific
knowledge. In addition to showcasing novel tools, algorithms and
methods for analyzing medical and clinical data. We hope the
conference will provide a forum for collaboration within the
community.
Conference talks will address the use of R in medical applications
from Phase I clinical trial design through the analysis of the
efficacy of medical therapies in public use. Topic areas for
R/Medicine include: clinical trial design, the analysis of clinical
trial data, personalized medicine, the analysis of patient records,
the analysis of genetic data, the visualization of medical data, and
reproducible research.
