Diane Mould and Steve Molnar competed in the 24 hours of LeMons, yes you read that right, Lemons not Le Mans. It is a 24 hour race where teams drive cars that are lemons. They drove a 1992 Toyota Paseo with two other drivers, John Dean and Johnny Kanavas. The event was full of challenges from a crowded track to inclement weather. The finished 7th overall out of 128 car. Congratulation on a great race!
PRI team member Bill Frame has a website www.thtxinfo.com which contains a lot of great Nonmem tutorial information along with some other interesting items.
Dr. Diane Mould was invited to speak at the Korean Society for Clinical Pharmacology and Therapeutics and American Society for Clinical Pharmacology and Therapeutics joint conference held in Seoul, Korea. She lectured on disease progression modeling to over 100 attendants.
Dr. Diane Mould was invited by the Chinese government and the National Institute of Health, to give a course lecture on clinical pharmacology in Bejing. The lecture covered such topics as population pharmacokinetics and disease progression modeling. There were 70 people in attendance for the hour long lecture. Dr. Mould is pictured with Dr Juan Lertora, head of the department of clinical pharmacology at the NIH.
On October 10 PRI attended a rally school in Dalton, NH. Everyone had a great time and drove really well.
The famous Watkins Glen in NY was where Steve and Diane tore up the track in the Mazda Cup Series. Diane is in car 26 with the single stripe on the hood and Steve is in car 59 with a double stripe on the hood. Although it rained during the Saturday race they both drove well and kept the cars out of the armco, an impressive feat at the Glen! Sunday fortunately brought out the sun and a dry track which enabled them to race even faster and with better results. Next stop, Road America, Elkheart Lake, WI in August.
Dr. Mould has been elected a fellow of the American College of Clinical Pharmacology. Congratulations Dr. Mould!
A preponderance of zeros may occur with several types of data. With interval data one may have a large proportion of actual zero values. For example, if income is the response being modeled, there could be many subjects with no income. With ordinal data one may be faced with the problem that most subjects have all zero values. If adverse event data is being modeled and 0 reflects no adverse event, then one might have a large fraction of subjects with all zero values. PRI in conjunction with several pharmaceutical companies has been exploring ways to model such responses. These include altered zero, added zero, mover-stayer, and sojourn models to name a few.
