Dr Praveen Thokala of the Health Economics and Decision Science (HEDS), School of Health and Related Research (ScHARR), University of Sheffield will be speaker for the March HERU Seminar.
Dr Thokala joined HEDS in March 2010 after completing a MASc at the University of Toronto and a PhD at the University of Southampton. His research interests are healthcare modelling, health economics, multi-criteria decision analysis and optimisation.
The presentation is on 'The Sheffield Type 1 Diabetes Policy Model'.
Abstract: The Sheffield Type 1 Diabetes Policy Model is a patient-level simulation model of type 1 diabetes and its associated complications, which was developed as part of the National Institute for Health Research Dose Adjustment for Normal Eating (DAFNE) research programme. The aim of this talk is to describe the conceptual modelling, model implementation, and model validation phases of the Sheffield Type 1 Diabetes Model development process. The model is highly flexible and has been used to evaluate DAFNE, other diabetes structured education programmes, and other interventions for type 1 diabetes.
The seminar runs from 12.45pm to 1.45pm, with a sandwich lunch at 12.30pm.
