The coordination project is the central node of the research unit FOR534 "Statistical modeling and data analysis in clinical epidemiology".The research unit concentrates on specific complex problems arising in the framework of clinical epidemiology with a strong need for evaluation of new and challenging statistical methods. The focus lies on the development of statistical methodology concerning three main and urgent themes which recur in many different clinical questions: bias from design or inadequate methods schould exhibit an advantage over standard methods or other competing techniques. Their application to available, individual patient data shuold provide new insights about the basic clinical research question and about their practical suitability. The research unit will not only answer important clinical questions in cooperation with clinical partners, but also contribute to the advancement of general statistical methodology with broad applications.
