Statistics Advanced for Non-Clinical PhD
Lecturer
- Claudia Lamina , PhD
Objective
Ability to plan and analyse models with advanced statistical methods, beyond the t-test.
Content
In the SS 2022, the course will be given in a hybrid version. Most parts will be online/self-learning (with videos and a script), accompanied with additional lectures in presence (which are recommended but not mandatory).
Covered topics:
- Repetition of the most important statistical tests (t-test, Chi-square test and non-parametric tests like the Wilcoxon test)
- the multiple testing problem
- linear and logistic regression methods
- Survival analysis
- Repeated measures and longitudinal data analysis
We will use the statistical program R for statistical analysis and we will get to know some basic programming steps in R. Due to the online self-learning modus, students will have to install R and R-Studio on their own PCs or Laptops.
