The @HERC_Oxford #HESG2020 summer meeting has been cancelled due to the #coronavirus outbreak. We hope to return to normal service with a winter meeting in Jan 2021 @LSHTM_CHIL.

Second paper from my PhD on the use of health economics in adaptive clinical trials :)

Steven Julious@StevenJulious

A qualitative analysis has just been been publisheed on how health economics [HE] can be used in the design and analysis of adaptive clinical trials (@Flight_LG @Alan_Brennan @ScHARR_DTS @ScHARRHEDS @ScHARRSheffield @CTRU_Sheffield). trialsjournal.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.11…

@stephensenn @tmorris_mrc Agree - a nice intro is given here sciencedirect.com/science/articl…, fig 1 in particular shows that different targets correspond to different forecast metrics. There was also a good Lyft blog on this, but I can't find it...

Heard about #ValueOfInformation, want to know more? How useful it is, how to avoid the consequences of suboptimal decision making.... Check this out👇 Part 1. Part 2 on ‘how to calculate’ to follow in March edition

ISPORJournals@ISPORJournals

The 1st report from the #ISPOR VOI Task Force is for decision makers, stakeholder groups identifying research priorities, & healthcare payers using formal assessment processes to inform their decisions about funding healthcare technologies. Prt 2 in March. ow.ly/o3YQ50yzFJS

@Bahman_R_T These look very interesting - note that in the UK long-range forecasting (extrapolation) is often used to inform healthcare decision-making (e.g. journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.11… and link.springer.com/article/10.100…) Happy to discuss this if you'd like.

Tweeps - do we need theories for public involvement in research - and if so why? I’m working with @OsloMet students and this has come up - interested in others views and experiences - thanks! #PPI #PublicInvolvement. @jonathanboote @sophie_stan2 @KristinaStaley2

This looks like it could be really useful for decision analytical modelling (adding to my big back-log of interesting papers to read): Comparing a stochastic differential equation model to a Markov model onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.10…

I found the @NIHR_RDSYH to be an invaluable source of help when submitting my @NIHRcommunity fellowship - would highly recommend making the most of their support.

This sounds really exciting - glad to see public involvement in a modelling project.

Thank you for having me @LSBrinkman, I had a great time! (And it wasn't raining 👍🌇)

Very useful starting guide for developing decision models in R

Fernando Alarid-Escudero@feralaes

Our new @DARTHworkgroup tutorial on Markov models in #rstats is out as preprint! arxiv.org/abs/2001.07824 Go check it out, learn how to implement time-constant and time-dependent Markov models, download the code from @github and modify it to create your own models! Link to repo 👇🏾

“leaders from across the research sector – at universities, funders and societies – need to accept that the drive for increased performance has resulted in an unintended consequence: a hyper-competitive and individualistic working environment.”

Survival model choice can have a significant impact on estimates of uncertainty of extrapolated hazard functions, mean survival and cost effectiveness #HEEE. Good practice recommendations for decision makers @YH_ARC @ScHARR doi.org/10.1007/s40273…
