Our new paper is out in Statistics in Medicine! We developed a joint model for multiple (un)bounded longitudinal markers, recurrent events, and competing risks, applied to US CF patient registry data. Joint work with @drizopoulos and @ERandrinopoulou. https://t.co/l9PL5zEvnz

Heading to Paris for the European CF Young Investigator Meeting! Excited to present our work on the long-term effectiveness of ivacaftor. With rapid adoption, finding a control group is challenging—I'll discuss how within-subject analyses can help! @vaincrelamuco

Last month's most downloaded #BJJ paper reported that circumferential casting did not result in a significantly different rate of redisplacement of the fracture compared with the use of a plaster splint. Read it today! #Surgery @p_m_afonso @janverhaar
