Registration is now open for the 2027 ViCBiostat Summer School. Our Causal Machine Learning course (10-12 Feb) introduces modern causal inference tools for understanding treatment effects in complex data settings; Beyond Binary (16 Feb) provides a practical deep dive into ordinal outcomes and hierarchical composite endpoints increasingly used in contemporary trials; and Adaptive Platform Trials (17-18 Feb) equips participants with the principles and mechanics of flexible, multi‑arm trial designs that evolve over time.
Together, these courses offer researchers a concentrated opportunity to strengthen methodological expertise and apply cutting‑edge approaches to real-world health research challenges.
- Registration prices vary across courses, please see the ViCBiostat website for details.
- Early-bird registration (10% discount) is available until 30 September
- While in-person attendance is recommended, all courses can be attended remotely via Zoom.
