Bayesian Training
Bayesian Training equips statisticians with skills to construct priors, calculate posteriors, interpret vaccine efficacy using credible intervals, perform robustness checks, and deliver clear visual summaries, enabling confident data-driven decisions in vaccine trials and beyond.

What will I learn?
This course provides a practical guide to Bayesian analysis of vaccine trial data. Learners will define binomial models, create trial scenarios, develop priors for vaccine efficacy, update Bayesian models, summarize posteriors, conduct robustness checks, avoid pitfalls, and communicate uncertainty effectively to stakeholders in real studies.
Elevify advantages
Develop skills
- Bayesian VE modeling: build and analyze binomial vaccine efficacy models quickly.
- Prior elicitation: convert expert opinions on vaccine efficacy into effective Beta priors.
- Posterior analysis: calculate vaccine efficacy means, credible intervals, and probabilities like Pr(VE>50%).
- Robustness checks: perform prior sensitivity analysis, skeptical priors, and prior predictive checks.
- Communication: clearly convey Bayesian vaccine efficacy results to technical audiences.
