Translational Medicine - Strategies and Statistical Methods

Translational medicine has become increasingly important in pharmaceutical research development. Translational Medicine: Strategies and Statistical Methods examines the critical decisions that must be made to successfully transition from basic to clinical science. With a review of existing processes, the book presents a detailed discussion of alternative research approaches that lead to faster and more accurate decisions on data. It provides insight on biomarker development in early phase clinical trials, integrates genomic and clinical databases for the establishment of medical predictive models in various diseases, and reviews the design and analysis for translating research findings.
