This is an introductory graduate course for clinicians and clinical researchers who need a basic understanding of clinical trial design/experimental design to carry out their own clinical research. The course will cover important aspects of designing clinical trials, including appropriate reporting of clinical trials. Note: The course is meant to be taken with the Statistics for Clinical Research course (VLAC 812.2). If the student's research involves observational study designs more than the clinical or experimental designs emphasized in this course, the Introduction to Veterinary Epidemiology I (VLAC 808.3) should be taken instead.
