BERD BITES: Air Pollution Monitoring and Modeling for Health Studies

BERD BITES: Air Pollution Monitoring and Modeling for Health Studies Air pollution exposure is the largest environmental risk to human health, associated with increased risk of premature death, cardiovascular diseases, respiratory diseases, metabolic diseases, and adverse birth outcomes. The presenters of this event will talk about different exposure assessment tools and opportunities in various levels (e.g., personal to national levels) to study the health impact of air pollution.   Presented by: 

Clinical Research Coordinator 101

This blended-learning training session is designed for clinical research coordinators, clinical research associates, or staff members who function in this capacity.     This course provides basic information on coordinating clinical trials at the University of Kentucky and is appropriate for entry level positions or those new to the field. Because this training is designed as an entry level program, it does not provide continuing education credit. There will be no fee charged to employees of the University of Kentucky.

BERD BITES: P-value, Posterior Probability and Prior Distribution

As widely used as p-value in basic science and clinical trials, it is also greatly criticized. Alongside with p-value is Bayesian posterior probability. One idea that is widely spread is that p-value could be very close to Bayesian posterior probability for a one-sided hypothesis test, while those two are dramatically different for a two-sided test. In this talk, we argue that it is the choice of prior distribution other than the set up of a hypothesis testing that impacts the reconcilability or lack of it between p-value and posterior probability.
