The Task Force on Design and Analysis in Oral Health Research is a non-profit "think tank" of clinical researchers, basic scientists, biostatisticians, epidemiologists and other quantitative scientists with experience in oral health research and/or clinical trials. The Task Force proposes to conduct a Hands-On Workshop, to provide an opportunity for members of the oral, dental and craniofacial research opportunities to take a condensed, introductory course that delivers current information on the conduct and analysis of clinical trials. A “hands-on” portion of this workshop will a lunch and learn, with each presenter serving as small group facilitator for discussion of case studies that deal with real-life issues about oral health clinical trials. Similar versions of this workshop have been conducted along side previous IADR meetings, the last being in 2016.
