Workshop Outline/Description:
Advanced NONMEM 7.6 course will be presented by ICON at ACOP 2025. This
in-person workshop covers the description and use of features in NONMEM 7.
Workshop attendees will be instructed how to specify gradient precision and how
to use the FAST algorithm (new in NM 7.4) for FOCE, how to use the Monte Carlo
importance sampling, stochastic approximation expectation-maximization methods,
and full Bayesian methods such as Gibbs sampling and Hamiltonian no-U turn
sampling (new in NM 7.4). Parallel computing and dynamic memory allocation for
efficient memory usage will be described, symbolic references to thetas, etas,
and sigmas, priors to sigmas, MonteCarlo search algorithms to improve FOCE
estimation, built-in individual weighted residuals, bootstrap tools for
simulation, and automatic stabilization against numerical exceptions. Learn to
use abbreviated code features for easier modeling of inter-occasion
variability, modeling additional mixed effects levels for grouping individuals,
such as inter-clinical site variability, and using the DO loop feature in
abbreviated code, useful for handling multiple bolus doses in models that use
the analytical absorption function for multiple transit compartments. Optimal
clinical design and evaluation tool is available, as well as delay differential
equation solvers.
