Advanced Statistical Analytics for Health Data Science with SAS and R
by
Ding-GengChen
In recent years, there has been a growing emphasis on making statistical methods and analytics accessible to health data science researchers and students. Following the first book on "Statistical Analytics for Health Data Science with SAS and R" (2023, https://www.routledge.com/9781032325620), this book serves as a comprehensive reference for health data scientists, bridging fundamental statistical principles with advanced analytical techniques. By providing clear explanations of statistical theory and its application to real-world health data, we aim to equip researchers with the necessary tools to navigate the evolving landscape of health data science. Designed for advanced-level data scientists, this book covers a wide range of statistical methodologies, including models for longitudinal data with time-dependent covariates, multi-membership mixed-effects models, statistical modeling of survival data, Bayesian statistics, joint modeling of longitudinal and survival data, nonlinear regression, statistical meta-analysis, spatial statistics, structural equation modeling, latent growth curve modeling, causal inference and propensity score analysis. A key feature of this book is its emphasis on real-world applications. We integrate publicly available health datasets and provide case studies from a variety of health applications. These practical examples demonstrate how statistical methods can be applied to solve critical problems in health science. To support hands-on learning, we offer implementation guidance using SAS and R, ensuring that readers can replicate analyses and apply statistical techniques to their own research. Step-by-step computational examples facilitate reproducibility and deeper exploration of statistical models. By combining theoretical foundations with practical applications, this book empowers health data scientists to develop robust statistical solutions for complex health challenges. Whether working in academia, industry, or public health, readers will gain the expertise to advance data-driven decision-making and contribute to evidence-based health research.

Chemical Engineering Principles Applied to Medicine - Modeling Physiology, Disease and Drug Delivery
by
David Bogle
Chemical Engineers are increasingly working on medical problems but so far there is no text that brings together such contributions for inspiring more research and as the basis for advanced courses. This work provides contributions on how Chemical Engineering approaches medical problems, particularly using modelling alongside experimentation and data analysis, to explore medical behaviors. Chapters on modelling the liver, kidney, lungs and skin and associated systems to show how major changes in behavior can be understood and to some extent predicted, are included. This is followed by chapters explaining how engineering principles have been developed to aid diagnosis and treatment of disease such as cancer, diabetes, Von Willibrands disease, and conditions associated with the lungs. The book is of relevance to all Chemical Engineers showing how the discipline is extending to tackle the chemical and physical aspects of disease and human physiology and will also be of interest to clinical staff who wish to see how engineering methodologies can help to integrate the fragmented landscape of medical specialties and in the future move towards decision support tools based on understanding of physiology and disease to aid clinical decision making in the way that is now done in manufacturing. Brings together Chemical Engineers with medical experts. Inspires young Chemical Engineers to see how and where and how their skill set can be applied to medical problems. Within the EFCE Forum on New Technologies Chemical Engineering as Applied in Medicine was seen as an inspiring new area of research.

Critical Thinking for Medical and Graduate Students
by
Jonathan Berman
The definitive handbook on critical thinking for medical and graduate students in biomedical sciences. First-year medical and graduate students in biomedical sciences face a variety of challenges in learning to study, feeling as though they belong, and learning to adopt the intellectual habits of their chosen profession. Crucial to their success in this key career period is learning critical thinking, which involves slowing down, as well as considering causality, epistemology, ethics, and one's own cognitive biases. This book addresses these challenges by teaching evidence-based study habits, "the hidden curriculum," and how to think about complex topics in biomedicine, especially for underrepresented students. With a wealth of practical examples and case studies, this accessibly written book presents complex topics from a variety of fields such as philosophy and logic in a digestible format for the target audience.
