Description

I'm seeing a fair number of public shinyapps.io apps which are basically modelled risk estimators for patients. For example you might input a bunch of factors to determine someone's progression-free cancer survival. Some options in this area might be:

  • Probability of giving birth by a certain date based on due-date
  • Alcohol and cancer
  • Simulation of household colds based on time of year and how many kids you have
