\nThe pharmaceutical indus
try is increasingly turning to Bayesian methods in early phase trials in a
n attempt to improve efficiency and enhance decision making. One reason fo

is 1-day scientific meeting provides an opportunity to learn about some of
the main techniques for incorporating historical data into study analyses
using different discounting methods\, and for eliciting expert prior info
