Suppose that the pathogen can vary over time (might be a bacteria that selects for drug-resistance) and that also it can vary across different tissue reservoirs within the same patient. In other words: names(data) = patient_id, start_time, stop_time, tissue_id, pathogen_type, marker1, ..., marker100, ..., outcome If I had multiple observations per patient at different time intervals, I would model it like this (hope it is correct) model<-coxph(Surv(start_time,stop_time,outcome)~all_covariates+cluster(patient_id)) But now I have both the patient and the tissue, an...
