Statistics - Basics, General

Louisiana Clinical & Translational Science Center Informatics Lectures

This lecture series will provide a practical introduction to computers, critical concepts in computing, and their application to informatics problems in the health sciences arena. My goal is for you to walk away from these sessions with a much deeper understanding of the internal workings of computers armed with an array of practical knowledge that you can apply to your everyday interactions with computer systems. I also intend for this material to lay the foundations necessary for entry into more detailed study on specialized computational topics such as DNA sequence analysis, genomics, and bioinformatics.

Duration: 8 hours

Lunch & Learn 4-Part Biostatistics Workshops
Workshop 1: Formulating a sound research question and study hypotheses: hypothesis testing. Workshop 2: Study designs and data collection strategies: scientific and logistical considerations in selecting the design to address your research questions. Workshop 3: Sample size and study power: Why do I need so many subjects? What will my biostatistician need to know and how can I get that information? Workshop 4: Statistical analysis: What statistical methods are appropriate for my study design and data collected?
