This month's MHRI-GHUCCTS Monthly Statistical Seminar Series will be held Friday, April 18, 2024, from 12 PM - 1 PM. This series features Dr. Paul Kolm, Associate Director in the Center for Biostatistics, Informatics, & Data Science (CBIDS) at MedStar Health Research Institute.

The topic of this month's seminar will be about how ROC curves provide an index of discrimination in assessing the reliability and validity of a test (e.g., screening test) to estimate  the likelihood of a given outcome or state – typically a disease state, positive or negative. We will look at the statistics of ROC curves as well as their presentation in abstracts or manuscripts.
