Mark Trentalange, MD, MPH

Associate Research Scientist at the Yale School of Public Health

Mark Trentalange received his medical education from New York Medical College in Valhalla followed by internship at Elmhurst hospital in Queens, and a residency in Anesthesiology at UCLA. His 20-year medical career included 3 years in the Navy and 17 years of private practice in Texas and Arizona. He is retired from anesthesia practice except for occasional medical missions to developing nations. Returning to get a MPH at the Yale School of Public Health, he is now an Associate Research Scientist at the Program on Aging at the Yale School of Medicine. He has been using SAS for about 5 years on a variety of projects requiring graphic products for presentation or publication.

Summary of talk: I will be discussing various techniques for easily improving commonly requested analyses as well as demonstrating some lesser-used capabilities in SAS, such as interactive windows, data skins, incorporation of company or departmental logos into graphics, composite graphics, overlaying to create complex portrayals of interactions, and lastly simple animations (if connectivity allows).
