This project aims to develop Bayesian methods for clinical and observational studies that analyze heterogeneous populations, target multiple diseases, and test various treatments from pre-clinical to clinical stages. The goal is to accelerate drug development, enhance result power, and improve biomarker discovery through adaptive randomization. We will create novel Bayesian adaptive designs that integrate data from non-concurrent trials, adjust randomization ratios based on covariates, and analyze studies with intercurrent events within a causal framework.Keywords : adaptive trials, causal inference, precision medicineContact : Send a CV toJ-18808-Ljbffr
