She is also the asso ciate director for Biostatistics at the Center for Pediatric Clinical Effe ctiveness (CPCE) and a Biostatistics faculty member at the Children’s Hosp ital of Philadelphia. Dr. Shu is interested in developing and applying sui table statistical methods to assess comparative safety and effectiveness o f medical products. Her research areas include causal inference\, measurem ent error\, pharmacoepidemiology\, and privacy-protecting methods. She com pleted her MSc in Statistics (with specialization in Biostatistics) at the University of Western Ontario\, and her PhD in Statistics at the Universi ty of Waterloo.\n\n\nMedical research often analyzes data from multiple so urces to increase statistical power and generalizability. A growing number of studies are now conducted within multi-site distributed data networks. For example\, the Sentinel System\, funded by the U.S. Food and Drug Admi nistration\, monitors the safety of approved medical products using data f rom multiple data partners. Within these networks like the Sentinel System \, each data partner maintains physical control of their data and may not always be able or willing to share individual-level data for analysis. In this talk\, I will first provide a brief overview of existing methods that enable valid survival analysis without pooling individual-level data acro ss sites. Then\, I will introduce a one-step method that allows data partn ers to share only summary-level risk set tables to estimate overall and si te-specific hazard ratios. Finally\, I will discuss how to apply risk set tables to other important measures such as Kaplan–Meier curves as well as some future topics. I will justify the method theoretically\, illustrate i ts use\, and demonstrate its statistical performance using both real-world and simulated data.\n\n \n\n \n\nVia Zoom: https://mcgill.zoom.us/j/85978 187693?pwd=WWtJZUpnb0JXK3o5SStnOFcxK3FFUT09\n DTSTART:20210929T193000Z DTEND:20210929T203000Z SUMMARY:Di Shu (University of Pennsylvania Perelman School of Medicine) URL:/mathstat/channels/event/di-shu-university-pennsyl vania-perelman-school-medicine-333654 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
