HARMONY – Grant Period IV – Dissemination Activities

The main strength of HARMONY lies in the diverse group of interested relevant experts and
stakeholders that collaborate towards the practical and flexible application of Bayesian Latent Class Models, under the various related fields of diagnostic test evaluation, prevalence estimation and certification of disease freedom.

Scientific publications and various dissemination activities, part of COST networking tools, are an imporant way to promote collaboration between researchers and stakeholders. The consortium has identified a list of subjects for publication.

— Systematic review-evaluation of existing Bayesian Latent Class models for sensitivity, specificity, true prevalence estimation

At this moment the research task will be to perform the “systematic review-evaluation of existing Bayesian Latent Class models for sensitivity, specificity, true prevalence estimation”.

The research team for this task has been formed, but more members are required to complete the task in due time.

Please visit the following Google Form either if you are already a member of the research team or if you wish to become one.

The Action’s core group will try to launch one subject at a time on a monthly basis, depending on the consortium’s participation.
