IalsaSynthesis

An R package for synthesizing information across collaborating research.

IALSA (Integrative Analysis of Longitudinal Studies of Aging) research network unites approximately 100 longitudinal studies from all over the world. IALSA makes primary use of a coordinated analysis approach and various harmonization methods. Our projects involve dealing with multiple longitudinal studies, each of which may count numerous statistical models, making the synthesis of results particularly arduous. The IalsaSynthesis package offers software tools for extracting, pooling, evaluating, and reporting the results of a large number of statistical models. See out flagship project, stemming from coordinated analysis workshop in Portland in February of 2015.

Collaborative Development

Consistent with IALSA goals, we encourage input and collaboration from the overall community. If you're familiar with GitHub and R packages, feel free to submit a pull request. If you'd like to report a bug or make a suggestion, please create a GitHub issue; issues are a usually a good place to ask public questions too. However, feel free to email Andriy or Will privately ([e-mail] or [e-mail]).
