Hi all,
I am trying to use the drm function in drc package to fit a 4 PL or 3PL
curve for an assay response. Please see the listed data below. When I do
the curve fitting, it returns the following error message. Anyone who
familiar with this have any input on what went wrong?
Thanks so much in advance!!
