- I am planning a longitudinal follow-up of a human population. In the past when I needed a sample size estimate for a survival study I have used a parametric approach to the sample size estimation, i.

- The Survival function S(t) = Pr(T>t) = exp(-H(t)) where H(t) = cumulative hazard = integral of the hazard rate h(t.). If we can get h(t), then we can get H(t), and then we can generate n pseudo-rando

- Why not use the actual survival curve? Assume a male, enrolled at age 50 in 1990: This gives a survival curve, now grab random survival times off of it: Splus has the US, US by race, Minnesota, Flori
