Welcome to Christophe Lalanne's homepage

Here is a placeholder for some notes I took during my past or present work, as well as some additional ressources like lectures notes and handbook for my teaching activities. The easiest way to reach me is by way of email (ch[dot]lalanne[at]gmail[dot]com, replace [#] where appropriate) although my reply may exceed what is commonly envisioned as a decent response delay.

• I am currently working as a psychometrician/biostatistician in the Patients Reported Outcomes Unit of the Department of Clinical Research (AP-HP, Hôpital Saint-Louis, Paris). My main activities are related to clinical trials and the construction and validation of Health-related Quality of Life questionnaires.
• I am also consulting for INSERM U669 where I am mainly involved in developing new methodological approaches for dealing with small-sample clinical studies or applying more classical methods for biomedical research (dyspraxia subtyping, gifted children, autism specturm disorder, eating disorder and anorexia nervosa, among others).
• As part of my work, I provide courses and training sessions.

My main interests are: latent variable modeling, multivariate data analysis, data visualization, statistical computing, and statistical software, especially the open-source R software.

Related publications can be found on my references page, and my CV is available as PDF, or on LinkedIn. For recent musings, lectures, links, etc., please check my Twitter account: @chlalanne.
