Hi nobody,

❝ Can we start a diploma thesis…


THX, not interested.

❝ … with adding some more random effects on the baseline (physiology jumps around like hell in practice, due to health status, sports, sleep, food etc.). Would love to see a large set of simulations taking into account all that!


Me too.

❝ Some 20 years ago I set up some S-plus simulations "retro-NONMEM" with true values and all kinds of variability to study the potential influence of analytical variability on BE decisions.


Haha, welcome to the club! I had even the crazy idea to optimize the number and location of calibrators based on PK (objective function: Minimize the RE of back-calculated concentrations). Trashed.

❝ Unfortunately never finished (end of academic time :-D) and lost the files while moving over from one computer to the next in the pre-NAS era...


Do you mean the NSA? The impact of bioanalytics on the outcome BE-studies is overrated anyhow. Unless the method is (really!) lousy, analytical variability contributes little to total variability (mainly biological noise).*
