MI210-W: Essentials of Population PK-PD Modeling & Simulation (3 CR)
Product Description
March 16 - June 18, 2010 (12 weeks plus 2 make-up weeks)
MI210 provides an extensive overview of topics in population pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics, including nonlinear mixed-effects modeling theory and implementation, data formatting requirements, population model development, model evaluation techniques, continuous PK-PD models, Monte Carlo simulation, and best practices. Instruction combines didactic lectures with hands-on exercises using R, MIfuns, and the NONMEM® 7 software. Participants may apply the 3 credit hours from this course to the Metrum Institute Certificate Program in Pharmacometrics.
Prerequisites: Basic understanding of pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic principles, compartmental pharmacokinetic models, introductory statistics, familiarity with the R or S language. Applicable MI Courses include: MI120, MI101, MI201, or contact us.
Computer Hardware/Software: This course requires a Windows computer with a web browser. Students will be given access to a Metrum Institute web-application server for hands-on examples, including all required software. Details on how to access the program are provided at the start of the course.
