Areas
- Areas Five fields where Cedar Kestrel applies study design, biostatistics, neuroimaging and model validation, with what we do and do not do in each.
- Brain Health & Neuroimaging Neuroimaging analysis, brain-age methods and statistics for brain-health and cognition studies, from the analysis plan to figures a reviewer can check.
- Mental Health & Biomarkers Statistics for mental-health research: imaging and digital biomarkers, sleep and circadian measures, and outcomes reported with their limits.
- Drug Development & Trial Analytics Trial sample size, imaging and digital biomarker endpoints, and independent model checks for teams developing treatments for brain and age-related disease.
- Aging, AgeTech & Digital Aging Care Statistics for aging research, care-program evaluation and AgeTech pilots of sensors and wearables, reported with honest limits.
- Medical Devices & Digital Health Study design and statistics for medical devices, digital tests and health apps: sample size, agreement, reliability and algorithm validation.
Services
- Services & prices Compare Cedar Kestrel research packages, deliverables, CAD prices, payment terms and what changes the price before a project starts.
- Study design & biostatistics Analysis plans, sample size, statistical analysis and reviewer responses for health research, from a CAD 495 review to reproducible results.
- Neuroimaging & brain-age analytics MRI, DTI and PET analysis, brain-age and Brain-PAD methods with quality control and cohort-level interpretation for research teams.
- ML model validation Independent checks of research machine-learning models: leakage, discrimination, calibration, subgroup performance and external validity.
Insights
- Insights Methods notes on brain age, sample size and digital test evaluation, a 30-term glossary and company news, filtered by type and area.
- What Brain-PAD means How brain age is estimated from MRI, why age-bias adjustment matters, how reliable it is, and what a positive Brain-PAD can and cannot say.
- How many participants? What drives sample size, three worked cases for imaging, reliability and agreement studies, when to simulate, and what grant reviewers look for.
- Evaluating a digital cognitive test How to evaluate a digital cognitive test: reliability, practice effects, agreement, accuracy, norms, fairness and the medical-device boundary.
- Glossary Plain definitions of 30 research terms, from Brain-PAD and ICC to tolerance intervals and software as a medical device.
