Population PKPD Modeling & Simulation with the MonolixSuite
September 22nd and 23rd | Online
A 2 days workshop on the MonolixSuite will be given by Marc Lavielle on the 22nd and 23rd of September. It is designed for both beginners and advanced modellers. The course will present how to use Monolix for PKPD modelling, population analysis and parameter estimation. The course will include training on Mlxtran, the simple and powerful declarative script language for continuous and discrete pharmacometric models. Advanced modelling features such as categorical and count data models, mixture models, time to events will be presented. The course will also provide training on Simulx, a powerful clinical trial simulator for the simulation and visualization of longitudinal data and virtual patient populations. Finally, the course will present the R package “LixoftConnectors” that allows to run the different programs of the MonolixSuite from R.

Instructor
Marc Lavielle
Research Director at Inria (France)
Marc Lavielle is a Research Director at Inria. He created and led the CNRS Research Group “Statistics and Health”. He is a member of the French National Council for Biotechnologies. He has worked on the development of maximum-likelihood estimation methods, applied to a broad area of applications (geophysics, signal processing, neuro-imaging, agronomy, genetics, PKPD,…). Marc Lavielle is the author of the book Mixed Effects Models for the Population Approach: Models, Tasks, Methods and Tools (Chapman & Hall/CRC Biostatistics Series, 2014). He has also co-authored several papers on various aspects of statistical estimation and on SAEM algorithm. Several of the methods that he developed are implemented in the Monolix software.
