Proposal to built an interface for SADAPT

Dear colleagues POP-PHARM would like to know if there would be interest from the Pharmacometric community in the potential development of a user-friendly interface that would facilitate the model building in SADAPT. The template interface would be the program I developed with its interface (Iconus) (PDX-MC-PEM) and automatic scripting that would built a model template which would include for examples automatic code for population mixture, interoccasion and covariate analysis (assuming log-linear regression for example). Simple questions would be answered by the user and he would have the option to either run the analysis with my program or be connected to the SADAPT engine that is usually more powerful and gives all the outputs that are usually needed (like standard errors, post-hoc etc...) This project can become reality if the Population community is interested and would be available free of charge. This will become reality once I am getting enough interest from the community in building this kind of facilitator. I would appreciate if anybody interested could give me some feedback with also desire features they would like to have implemented. As you know, we have planned a SADAPT workshop on April 14-15 ( http://www.mosaicnj.org/2009/02/21/s-adapt-intermediate-workshop ) and anybody coming to the workshop could ask me at that time any questions about this new potential project. If you need more information about the upcoming SADAPT workshop, please visit http://www.mosaicnj.org/2009/02/21/s-adapt-intermediate-workshop to access to both the agenda and registration.
