RDA Sponsors the Young Statisticians Meeting 2025 in Liverpool

We are excited to announce that RDA is proudly sponsoring this year’s Young Statisticians Meeting (YSM), taking place in Liverpool. This annual event brings together emerging statisticians from around the world to share knowledge, explore new ideas, and foster professional growth.

As a company committed to supporting the next generation of biostatisticians, we are thrilled to be part of this important event. We look forward to contributing to the growth of the statistical community.

Methods Development

Methods Development We provide expert guidance in finding the appropriate statistical approach to answer your question… and if there isn’t yet a method, well, we can develop one. While applying biostatistics to address your research question is essential, there may be times when existing methods fall short for your specific problem. In such cases, we’re […]

Applied Biostatistics

Applied Biostatistics Biostatistics plays a crucial role in advancing medical research. Whether it’s clinical trials, epidemiological studies, or pre-clinical research, biostatistics is essential for drawing meaningful, impactful conclusions from complex data. Our team consists of internationally recognized experts in applied biostatistics, with deep experience in a wide range of areas such as survival analysis, multi-state […]

Haematology

Haematological malignancies At Red Door Analytics, we have extensive experience in working with haematological malignancies, demonstrated through 18 publications in peer-reviewed journals. Our expertise spans epidemiological studies on prognosis and late effects, as well as randomised clinical trials. Based in Stockholm, we have unique experience in accessing and working with registry data from the Nordic […]

Introduction to Epidemiological Study Designs

This video offers a comprehensive introduction to epidemiological study designs, emphasising their classification, key definitions, strengths, limitations, and practical applications. We will dive into the most commonly used study designs, exploring their structure, purpose, and the contexts in which they are most effective. Throughout the video, real-world case studies of landmark research will be used […]

Real-World Evidence (RWE)

Real-World Evidence Real-world evidence (RWE) refers to data and information that, unlike data generated in clinical trials conducted in controlled environments, has been obtained from everyday clinical practice, patient registers, or other sources outside the clinical trial setting. RWE plays a crucial role in complementing traditional clinical trial data, providing insights into the safety, effectiveness, […]

State-of-the-art statistical models for modern HTA

At @RedDoorAnalytics, we develop methodology and software for efficient modelling of biomarkers, measured repeatedly over time, jointly with survival outcomes, which are being increasingly used in cancer settings. We have also developed methods and software for general non-Markov multi-state survival analysis, allowing for the development of more plausible natural history models, where patient history can […]

Multilevel (hierarchical) survival models: Estimation, prediction, interpretation

Hierarchical time-to-event data is common across various research domains. In the medical field, for instance, patients are often nested within hospitals and regions, while in education, students are nested within schools. In these settings, the outcome is typically measured at the individual level, with covariates recorded at any level of the hierarchy. This hierarchical structure […]

What are competing risks?

Competing risks In survival analysis, competing risks refer to the situation when an individual is at risk of experiencing an event that precludes the event under study to occur. Competing risks commonly occur in studies of cause-specific mortality, as all other causes of death than the one under study might happen before the individuals “have […]

What is immortal time bias?

Immortal time bias Immortal time bias is a type of bias that can occur in observational research when the study design allows for a period of time during which the outcome of interest cannot occur, often referred to as “immortal time”. Simply put, immortal time bias occurs when information from a future event is incorporated into the […]

What is the proportional hazards assumption?

Proportional hazards Proportional hazards in survival analysis means that the rate at which an event of interest occurs over time for two or more groups or individuals is proportional over time. Specifically, it assumes that the hazard ratio, which represents the relative rate of an event occurring between two groups or individuals, is constant over […]

What is censoring?

Censoring refers to a situation in survival analysis where the event of interest is not observed for some of the individuals under study. In this Statistical Primer, we’ll define three types of censoring often seen in survival analysis studies. Censoring occurs when the information on the survival time is incomplete or only partially observed. Censoring […]

What is the Cox model?

The Cox model The Cox model, also known as the proportional hazards model, is a popular statistical tool used to analyse survival data. It was developed by British statistician Sir David Cox, and published in 1972. It has gained popularity largely by avoiding making parametric assumptions about the shape of the baseline rate in a […]
