SUMMARY:Mendelian Randomisation Training Course
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a three-day\, in-person course on Mendelian randomisation at University College London from 15th-17th September 2026. \nRunning for the third year\, this course introduces some of the theory and most widely used tools for MR\, and how to apply these methods to real research questions. The course will cover one-sample and two-sample approaches\, sensitivity analyses including pleiotropy-robust methods\, multivariable MR for mediation and interaction analyses\, within-family MR\, MR-PheWAS and drug target MR. Each method will be explained with accompanying practicals to give participants hands-on experience designing\, running\, interpreting\, and reporting MR studies. \nLocation: Wolfson Centre\, Bloomsbury.\nTutors: Dr Emma Anderson\, Dr Dylan Williams & Professor Neil Davies\, University College London\nGuest lecturer: Dr Eleanor Sanderson\, University of Bristol \nFeedback from previous years: \n“The entire course was excellent. Lots of helpful information\, engaging content\, very helpful and detailed practicals.”\n“The course leaders were all super helpful\, very kind and very knowledgeable – it was a great atmosphere.”\n“I was new to MR so it was very good experience to learn the basic concepts and appreciate the complexities as well.”\n“I thought the course was really engaging and interactive. It was nice that the group was relatively small. Teachers were motivated and very helpful.” \n\nRegister
