📢 Excited to share that our paper “Semi-Markov modeling for disease incidence risk and duration” has been accepted for publication in Biostatistics & Epidemiology!

It explores cancer incidence risk and years of life lost due to cancer using a Semi-Markov illness-death model applied to Belgian Cancer Registry data, with implications for the right to be forgotten in insurance.

5/ Worse yet, some of the studies cited don’t even make sense. Joanne McKenzie, a biostatistics professor, said a conclusion drawn from her work on antidepressants was totally fabricated. Her research didn’t even include psychotherapy. 🚫💊

The image captures a vibrant poster session at the useR! R Conference, held in Salzburg in July 2024. The setting is a spacious conference hall with attendees engaging in discussions around research posters mounted on large display boards. Participants, a mix of data scientists, researchers, and R enthusiasts, are seen standing in small groups, gesturing towards the posters, and exchanging insights. Some individuals are holding conference materials or notebooks, while others are listening attentively to presenters explaining their work. The posters feature graphs, charts, and R code snippets, reflecting cutting-edge developments in R programming for statistical analysis and data science. The atmosphere is collaborative and professional, with attendees dressed in business casual attire. In the background, additional posters and conference branding related to R programming and statistical computing reinforce the theme of the event. The lighting in the room is bright, enhancing visibility and interaction.
