CT E10 Application of Bayesian Statistical Methods in Medical Device Design and Development with Riley King
CT E10 Application of Bayesian Statistical Methods in Medical Device Design and Development with Riley King
In today’s episode, my guest Riley King and I explore the application of Bayesian statistical methods in the medical device industry. Riley is a thought leader in medical device design and development and has worked with class III medical devices for over 14 years.
Riley shares with us
· His experience in medical device R&D and working in a quality leadership position in medical device
· The use of conventional, frequentist statistical methods in medical device development and some of the challenges he has faced when trying to apply conventional statistical methods
· His explanation of Bayesian statistics, the difference between frequentist and Bayesian methods, and why use Bayesian methods
· Real-life medical device use cases where Bayesian methods can be useful
· His tools of choice, which includes the programming language R and specific packages for Bayesian methods
· His learning journey and book/resource recommendations
· Tips for those in a similar line of work interested in learning and applying these techniques
· Trends he believes will shape the future of medical device technology and development
Riley has a blog called [R]eliability – A Random Walk in the Medical Device Space, where he talks in detail about his experiences. Make sure to check it out; it is awesome!
QDD 054 Design Specs vs. Process Control, Capability, and SPC
Design Specs vs. Process Control, Capability, and SPC
This fourth episode of the “QDD Versus” series focuses on concepts relating to Design for Manufacturability. Understand how design specs fit into process control, process capability, and SPC and where they typically don’t fit at all.
We talk about things to think about when setting limits on design features.
And, when defining controls for potential failures, knowing how processes are controlled can help us decide if the controls we have are good enough or not.
RM 094: A Conversation with Author Dr. Ron Lasky About His Many Books
A Conversation with Author Dr. Ron Lasky About His Many Books
Dr. Ron Lasky talks about the many books he has authored on SMT processes and production efficiencies.
Dr. Ron Lasky is a Senior Technologist at Indium Corporation, as well as a Professor of Engineering at Dartmouth College, where I have twice had the privilege of speaking on the Dartmouth campus to his students. If you’re like some people who view the next generation of young adults skeptically and pessimistically, I can assure you your view would quickly change after spending time with his students. Dr. Lasky has more than 30 years of experience in electronics and optoelectronics packaging at IBM, Universal Instruments, and Cookson Electronics. Additionally, he has served as an adjunct professor at several colleges, teaching more than 20 different courses on topics ranging from electronics packaging, materials science, physics, mechanical engineering and science, and religion.
Dr. Lasky holds numerous patent disclosures and is the developer of several SMT processing software products relating to cost estimating, line balancing, and process optimization, all subjects of paramount importance in today’s hyper-competitive environment. He is the co-creator of engineering certification exams that set standards in the electronics assembly industry worldwide. Dr. Lasky was awarded the Surface Mount Technology Association’s (SMTA) Technical Distinction Award in 2021 for his “significant and continuing technical contributions to the SMTA.” He was also awarded SMTA’s Founder’s Award in 2003.
Dr. Lasky holds four degrees, including a Ph.D. from Cornell University in materials science, and is a licensed professional engineer.
He has authored six books, and contributed to nine more, on science, electronics, and optoelectronics, and has authored numerous technical papers and today, I’m going to talk with Ron about some of those books.

QDD 053 Internal Customers vs. External Customers
Internal Customers vs. External Customers
We talk about customers of design information. It takes many people to realize a product design into something that can be sold and used. Those people need design information to ensure that they’re performing their tasks to produce a high-quality product, and to be able to use our product appropriately. We review who our customers are and what type of information they need from design engineers.
