The Division of Cancer Prevention hosted the Statistical Adjustment for Multiplicity Virtual Workshop from October 26-27, 2022.
The goal of this workshop was to bring together medical doctors, epidemiologists, and statisticians from the academy, industry, and government, representing a broad range of expertise and experiences to:
- Discuss traditional, new, and emerging methods of statistical adjustment
- Assess suitability of techniques in different situations in pursuit of protected inference to aid both rigor and reproducibility
- Review best practices for multiplicity adjustment
- Foster idea exchange and new collaborative interactions to address current gaps in the knowledge base
This workshop provided helpful guidelines that will enable investigators in the external community to conduct protected inference.
