Introduction to Population PKPD modelling and simulation using nlmixr2

PopSim – DRA workshop 2

The PopSim board and DRA want to repeat the success from last year and host a workshop on rxode2 and nlmixr2 with a hands-on session. The workshop is intended for PKPD modellers with experience in using R and will provide illustrative examples of various modelling applications.

As this is a hands-on-workshop, participants will be required to bring a laptop and install R and nlmixr2 (https://nlmixr2.org/) prior to the workshop.

9:00-9:05 Welcome by Trine Meldgaard Lund and Coffee
9:05-11:30 Lectures and hands-on in R: An advanced workshop in nlmixr2
by Rik Schoemaker (Occams, Netherlands) with hands-on assisted by Johan Areberg (Lundbeck)
11:30-12:00 Sandwich and coffee break
12:00-13:30 Lectures and hands-on in R (continued)

Pre-registration is required. Please sign up here no later than 14 August 2024.

There is a limited number of seats (30), which will be distributed on a first come first served basis but giving priority to PhD students and then to people that have not attended the first day. Participation is free of charge. Notification of admission to the workshop will be given by the end of August.

We want to acknowledge “nlmixr2 team development team” for their contributions to the open-source community.
