Metrum Institute is pleased to announce several course offerings for 2010, as both on-site short-courses and semester-long webinar series. Some of the newer offerings include courses on Bayesian methods (using WinBUGS) applied to PK-PD, categorical/time-to-event endpoints, and model-based meta analyses problems. Existing web-cast courses related to introductory and advanced population PK-PD methods have been updated to utilize NONMEM(R) 7 for hands-on examples. All courses include lectures, demonstrations, hands-on practical examples, and exams. Each of these courses is part of a 25+ credit hour curriculum known as the Metrum Institute Certificate Program in Pharmacometrics. Seats are limited, but are currently available in all courses. Academic/government discounts are available. For detailed course outlines, prerequisites or registration information, please see: ( http://training.metruminstitute.org/ ) or contact us at ( [email protected] ) with any questions. Thank you.
