Statistical methods were introduced into clinical trials to account for sources of variability among patients.  In times of uncertainty, clinical researchers can use statistics to draw accurate/reasonable inferences from information collected for sound decision making.Suppose you are a Scientist working for a pharmaceutical company and need to design a Clinical Trial for a new COVID-19 vaccine.  Before the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) will allow you to conduct the trial you must first submit a proposal.  The proposal will be analyzed to see if your trial is feasible and if you are able to move forward. Your proposal should include (at a minimum) the following:State the objectiveDescribe the population, parameter, sampling frame, and sample (include your sample size).State which of the four-sampling methods (SRS, Stratified RS, Systematic RS, Cluster RS) you plan to use and why you chose it.Describe (in detail) how you will select your sample.  Someone should be able to replicate exactly what you did.Describe how you plan to collect the data.How will you minimize bias?Any other pertinent informationCite your sources.Please keep in mind that your Math Statistics and Probability STAT 400 Share QuestionEmailCopy link Comments (0)
