1-day, in-person course

This course will provide an overview of how QoL is used in research studies, covering how to:

• select appropriate QoL instruments for a study
• outline QoL measures in protocols and grant applications
• analyse and properly interpret QoL data

Examples from a range of medical areas would be used, such as cancer, immunology, and paediatric and chronic disorders. Attendees can understand some of the common core principles but also differences in applying QoL between disorders. The course will also outline how QoL is used in decision-making to support implementing new interventions into clinical practice such as market authorisation and market access of new drugs. Sessions will be interactive and based on real-life examples.
