Biokit	Quantification of the uncertainty associated with a calibrator A gauge is a solution containing a component of interest. The amount contained in this component is known. By comparing the results obtained with the evaluation of a sample of the real against the assessment gauge, makes it possible to interpret the signal and determine the presence or absence of the component of interest. This interpretation which allows individuals to diagnose, determine the nature of a disease. Knowing the amount of analyte contained in the gauge is the key to a correct application of a diagnostic test for this, the uncertainty associated with establishing this amount is information essential to the proper functioning of a test. This project seeks to identify and quantify all the factors that can contribute to uncertainty value assigned to a calibrator. What do we offer? Tutoring for the preparation of the project presented Participation in an interdisciplinary working group Signing of educational cooperation agreement What we require? Student knowledge modeling (ANOVA, linear regression, mixed models) and domain statistical programming language R Medium-high level of English language Possibility for moving to Lliçà d'Amunt	Susana Pérez Álvarez	Xavier Tort-Martorell
