CSM'S RANDOMISED CONTROLLED TRIALS COURSE
Now in its 16th year, the Centre for Statistics in Medicine (CSM)’s Randomised Controlled Trials (RCT) Course is ideal for anyone planning or actively involved in RCTs for healthcare evaluation, particularly those early in their career or those looking for a refresher course. The course uses a problem-based learning approach to provide a thorough grounding in the principles and practice of planning, conducting, reporting, and interpreting RCTs, mixing lectures and small-group practical work.
The interdisciplinary faculty of clinicians, statisticians, and trial managers, all with a wealth of RCT experience, includes CSM staff (e.g., Prof Doug Altman, Associate Prof Jonathan Cook, and Dr Vicki Barber), wider University of Oxford staff (e.g., Prof David Beard and Prof Ed Juszczak), and those from further afield (e.g., Prof Mike Clarke of Queen’s University Belfast).
