POPKAN is a computer program that carries out the Bayesian analysis of population pharmacokinetic data. The program is menu-driven, is called from within SAS and runs on a 486. The implementation is completely Bayesian and utilizes recent advances in Bayesian computation to correctly acknowledge the uncertainty in unknown parameters.
Features include:
- informative graphical display of results,
- robust inference through the use of t-distributions,
- extensive model-checking facilities,
- a simulation module which allows the information to be provided by a particular experiment to be determined.
