Webinar Topics:

1. Survival Analysis 1 (60 minutes)

In this talk I introduce the concepts and jargon of survival analysis including time-to-event data, different kinds of censoring, as well as graphical, nonparametric, semi-parametric, and parametric methods for modeling survival data.  I then demonstrate how to use Stata's -stset- command tell Stata about the features of a survival dataset, how to use Stata's -st- commands to fit models for survival data, and how to use -margins-, -marginsplot-, and -stcurve- to visualize the results of these models.

2. Survival Analysis 2: Advanced (60 minutes)

This talk is a continuation of Survival Analysis 1.  It includes advanced topics such as Cox regression with  categorical and continuous time-varying covariates, shared-frailty models, multilevel parametric survival analysis, survival analysis in the context of structural equation models (SEM), and competing risks regression.
