摘要: Complex data and models now pervade biostatistics epidemiology. Increasingly, Bayesian methods are seen as desirable tools to tame this complexity make principled inferences from the at hand. In chapter we try convey flavor of what have offer, by describing a number applications health research. We emphasize strengths these approaches, points departure non-Bayesian techniques.
