UW Slide Template Library

How to use this template library

• This file is a library of slide examples
  
• We can copy–paste any slide we like into our actual presentation .qmd
• All slides use the UW theme from uw.css
• We can safely delete sections we don’t need
• This delimiter ----------- is used to separate slides although is not necessary

Example slide for incremntal bullet points

By the end of this section, participants should be able to:

Example of Key definition / concept slide

We can use this for central definitions like ICER, odds ratio, etc.

Worked example / derivation

We can reveal derivation steps gradually.

We want to estimate the effect of \(X\) on \(Y\):

\[ Y_i = \beta_0 + \beta_1 X_i + \varepsilon_i \]

Example of quick quiz

Question

A logistic regression model estimates the log-odds of screening uptake.
Which of the following is not an appropriate interpretation?

Activity / discussion slide

Code Animations

• Over 20 syntax highlighting themes available
• Default theme optimized for accessibility

# Define a server for the Shiny app
function(input, output) {
  
  # Fill in the spot we created for a plot
  output$phonePlot <- renderPlot({
    # Render a barplot
    barplot(WorldPhones[,input$region]*1000, 
            main=input$region,
            ylab="Number of Telephones",
            xlab="Year")
  })
}

Line Highlighting

• Highlight specific lines for emphasis
• Incrementally highlight additional lines

import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

r = np.arange(0, 2, 0.01)
theta = 2 * np.pi * r
fig, ax = plt.subplots(subplot_kw={'projection': 'polar'})
ax.plot(theta, r)
ax.set_rticks([0.5, 1, 1.5, 2])
ax.grid(True)
plt.show()

Executable Code

library(ggplot2)
ggplot(mtcars, aes(hp, mpg, color = am)) +
  geom_point() +
  geom_smooth(formula = y ~ x, method = "loess")

LaTeX Equations

MathJax rendering of equations to HTML

\begin{gather*}
a_1=b_1+c_1\\
a_2=b_2+c_2-d_2+e_2
\end{gather*}

\begin{align}
a_{11}& =b_{11}&
  a_{12}& =b_{12}\\
a_{21}& =b_{21}&
  a_{22}& =b_{22}+c_{22}
\end{align}

Slide Backgrounds

Set the background attribute on a slide to change the background color (all CSS color formats are supported).

Different background transitions are available via the background-transition option.

Auto-Animate

Automatically animate matching elements across slides with Auto-Animate.

Auto-Animate

Automatically animate matching elements across slides with Auto-Animate.

Chalkboard

Use the chalkboard button at the bottom left of the slide to toggle the chalkboard.

Use the notes canvas button at the bottom left of the slide to toggle drawing on top of the current slide.

You can also press bb to toggle the chalkboard or cc to toggle the notes canvas.

Interactive tabset (multiple tables)

Interactive plot (plotly scatter)

Dynamic Simulation Plot – 10 Random Walks

This slide shows 10 independent random walks. Each line is a trajectory, and the animation reveals them step by step.

Microsimulation vs DES – Loop Iterations

Dynamic PSA CE-Plane “Movie”

This slide shows a dynamic cost-effectiveness (CE) plane.
Each frame reveals a new batch of PSA draws for incremental cost vs. incremental QALYs.

Process Diagram (Animated)

This example shows a simple modeling workflow. Each step will appear one by one as you advance through the slide.

Process Diagram (Horizontal Pipeline)

This version shows a left-to-right workflow with arrows between steps.
Each step appears as you advance through the slide.

References with citation keys (if using BibTeX)

class: uw-ref-slide

If We want Quarto to build references automatically:

1. Create a refs.bib file in the same folder
   
2. Add bibliography: refs.bib and link-citations: true to the YAML
   
3. Use citation keys like this in the text: Rubin (1978), Heckman (1979), etc.

Then add a slide with the references (next slide):

Key takeaways slide

Use this to close a section or the whole talk.
