DietBB Seminar Series: Modeling usual dietary intake using repeated short-term measurements

November 26, 2018

There is increasing interests in using mixed modeling that can provide estimates when complex data structures had been generated. One area of applying mixed models is the assessment of dietary intake that had been requested by repeated short-term dietary measurements.

Dr. Sven Knüppel, MSc German Institute of Human Nutrition Potsdam-Rehbrücke (DIfE). Department of Epidemiology, will talk about: “Modeling usual dietary intake using repeated short-term measurements”

Abstract: There is increasing interests in using mixed modeling that can provide estimates when complex data structures had been generated. One area of applying mixed models is the assessment of dietary intake that had been requested by repeated short-term dietary measurements. However, such modeling entails a multitude of challenges. In this talk, some of these challenges will be discussed and solutions presented. Experiences with the application of current statistical algorithms for estimating usual dietary intake are reported and the dietary assessment strategy of the German National Cohort (https://nako.de) will be shared.

 

Date & Time: Monday, November 26th 2018, 5.00-5.45 pm

Location: Seminarroom U1.024, Endenicher Allee 19b, Bonn-Poppelsdorf MAP

The talk will be followed by an informal Get-together.
