Dates: Mon.9th, Tues.10th, Thurs.12th & Fri.13th October 2023 Time: 09:00-12:00 BST (each day) Location: Online Speakers: Jonathan Bartlett and James Carpenter (LSHTM)
Who is this event intended for? This course is intended for clinical trial statisticians who are interested in learning more about statistical methods for handling missing data in clinical trial analyses. What is the benefit of attending? By the end of the course participants will be familiar with the key concepts (e.g. missing at random) and statistical methods (e.g. multiple imputation) relevant when estimating treatment effects in trials where some data are missing.
Cost
Early Bird PSI Members = £320+VAT Early Bird Non-Members = £430*+VAT *Please note: Early Bird prices expire at 17:00 on Friday 8th September.
Standard PSI Members = £360+VAT Standard Non-Members = £470*+VAT
*Please note: Non-Member rates include PSI membership until 31 Dec. 2024.
This course will introduce participants to the key concepts and methods relevant for analysing clinical trials when some data are missing. We will describe missing data assumptions and Rubin’s framework for classifying them, based on missing completely at random, missing at random (MAR), and missing not at random, and what these imply when missingness is due to dropout or the occurrence of intercurrent events. We will describe the use of mixed models and multiple imputation to handle missingness under MAR, and finally discuss methods for conducting missing data sensitivity analyses, including reference based imputation methods.
The course will cover:
Introduction to estimands and missing data in trials; review of missing data assumptions & terminology (e.g. missing at random)
Performing analyses under missing at random for continuous outcome data, using mixed models and multiple imputation (including consideration of retrieved dropout multiple imputation)
Performing analyses under missing at random for binary data, using full conditional specification for multiple imputation with a GEE analysis model
Sensitivity analyses using multiple imputation, including reference based imputation methods
Please note: Each of the above will be presented in a one hour lecture, followed by a two hour interactive computer practical. Computer practicals will be taught using R and so having R or R Studio installed on your personal laptop/computer is required to participate in the practicals.

Upcoming Events
PSI Mentoring 2026
Date: Ongoing 6 month cycle beginning late April/early May 2026
Are you a member of PSI looking to further your career or help develop others - why not sign up to the PSI Mentoring scheme? You can expand your network, improve your leadership skills and learn from more senior colleagues in the industry.
Joint PSI/EFSPI Visualisation SIG 'Wonderful Wednesday' Webinars
Our monthly webinar explores examples of innovative data visualisations relevant to our day to day work. Each month a new dataset is provided from a clinical trial or other relevant example, and participants are invited to submit a graphic that communicates interesting and relevant characteristics of the data.
PSI Training Course: Effective Leadership – the keys to growing your leadership capabilities
This course will consist of three online half-day workshops. The first will be aimed at building trust, the backbone of leadership and a key to becoming effective. This is key to building a solid foundation.
The second will be on improving communication as a technical leader. This workshop will focus on communication strategies for different stakeholders and will involve tips on effective communication and how to develop the skills of active listening, coaching and what improv can teach us about good communication.
The final workshop will bring these two components together to help leaders become more influential. This will also focus on how to use Steven Covey’s 7-Habits, in particular Habits 4, 5 and 6, which are called the habits of communication.
The workshops will be interactive, allowing you to practice the concepts discussed. There will be plenty of time for questions and discussion. There will also be reflective time where you can think about what you are learning and how you might experiment with it.
Our monthly webinar series allows attendees to gain practical knowledge and skills in open-source coding and tools, with a focus on applications in the pharmaceutical industry. This month’s session, “Graphics Basics,” will introduce the fundamentals of producing graphics using the ggplot2 package.
This networking event is aimed at statisticians that are new to the pharmaceutical industry who wish to meet colleagues from different companies and backgrounds.
This webinar brings together three bitesize complementary sessions to help PSI contributors create conference presentations and posters that communicate clearly and inclusively. Participants will explore how to refine their message, prepare materials effectively, and adopt practical habits that support confident, accessible delivery. A focused, supportive session designed to elevate every contribution.
This networking event is aimed at statisticians that are new to the pharmaceutical industry who wish to meet colleagues from different companies and backgrounds.
