Optimize your Product or Process
In this one-of-a-kind workshop, learn how to apply DOE to life science problems. We welcome scientists, engineers, and technical professionals working in the pharmaceutical, biomedical technology and biomedical device fields, as well as organizations and institutions that devote the majority of their efforts to research, development, technology transfer, or commercialization of these fields. Throughout this course you will explore cases that come directly from this industry!

During a fast-paced two days explore the use of fractional factorial designs for the screening and characterization of products or processes. Also see how to achieve top performance via response surface designs, mixture designs, and multiple response optimization.  Practice applying all of these DOE tools while working through cases involving time-release coating, medical device design, assay optimization, synthetic mediums, and much more.

This computer-intensive workshop is filled with extras. Two fun and easy-to-read texts, DOE Simplified and RSM Simplified, authored by Mark Anderson and Pat Whitcomb, are included and provide supplemental background reading for all DOE topics covered. More importantly, Stat-Ease's highly experienced DOE experts will provide you with individualized guidance and support after class to help you get started on your next project—at no extra cost!

The DELS workshop provides a broad survey of the three major types of DOE designs—factorials, response surfaces, and mixtures. After completing the course you may want to further your education by attending one of Stat-Ease's core courses (EDME, RSM, MIX).
