The Tutorials in Biostatistics have become a very popular
feature of the prestigious Wiley journal, Statistics in
Medicine (SIM). The introductory style and practical focus make
them accessible to a wide audience including medical practitioners
with limited statistical knowledge. This book represents the
second of two volumes presenting the best tutorials published in
SIM, focusing on statistical modeling of complex data. Topics
include clustered data, hierarchical models, mixed models, genetic
modeling, and meta-analysis. Each tutorial is focused on a medical
problem, has been fully peer-reviewed and edited, and is authored
by leading researchers in biostatistics. Many articles
include an appendix on the latest developments since publication in
the journal and additional references.
This will appeal to statisticians working in medical research, as well as statistically-minded clinicians, biologists, epidemiologists and geneticists. It will also appeal to graduate students of biostatistics.
