Title:	Statistical challenges and issues in transplantation
Time & Venue:	2019.1.17 16:00 N613
Abstract:	Transplant is a treatment option for diseases with damaged or destroyed bone marrow and for diseases with terminal and irreversible organ failures. Analysis of transplant data is to identify medical treatments and procedures for best clinical outcome with minimal cost. In this talk, I will use pediatric allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (alloHCT) and kidney transplantation to present commonly used statistical approaches and to illustrate the challenges and issues in statistical analysis. In particular, I will highlight the importance of statistical principles and simple methods for practical use.
