Introduction

The tutorials will mainly be based on materials from NIEHS 2015 workshop and PRIME program.

NIEHS 2015 workshop

In 2015, the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) convened a workshop to bring together experts to identify and compare statistical approaches for analyzing chemical mixture data in epidemiological studies. The collection of abstract, codes, and datasets from the workshop are all available on the NIEHS website.

PRIME Program

NIEHS also launched a funding to address the analytical challenges of environmental mixtures research, called Powering Research through Innovative methods for Mixtures in Epidemiology (PRIME) program. Thirty-seven new statistical methods supported by the NIEHS PRIME Program are available in Github.
