Shared Decision Making Hour is a monthly open forum hosted by Shared Decision Making SIG for anyone interested in exploring the latest in shared decision making (SDM). We welcome all perspectives and encourage open dialogue!
About this Event
The SMDM Career Development Committee invites members, particularly trainees and early-career researchers, to join a panel discussion on navigating the academic job market. Hear from recent candidates and a faculty member with search committee experience as they share practical advice on preparing application materials, interviewing, negotiating offers, and successfully pursuing postdoctoral and faculty positions. The session will conclude with a live Q&A, providing attendees the opportunity to ask questions and gain valuable career insights.
About this Event
Building accurate Markov models is challenging because they cannot easily be matched up with clinical survival data. Partitioned Survival models are built directly on survival curves that can be fitted to clinical data through regression analysis. However, Partitioned Survival models are limited to forward progression, and they do not support critical events beyond implicit progression and death. Markov models are instead built on distinct events including, but not limited to, progression and death. However, Markov models cannot be directly fitted to clinical survival data because disease progression results from a combination of event risks applied over time. For Markov models, curve-fitting calibration techniques can refine event probabilities to match multi-cause disease progression to clinical survival data.
