- Course objectives
- The course is basic introduction into practical data analysis for students of biology and clinical study specialisations. The course accompanies theoretical lectures of data analysis and shows the computation of presented methods on PC using statistical software (descriptive statistics, one sample and two sample tests, categorical data analysis, ANOVA, correlation and regression analysis, data visualisation, basics of experimental design).
- Learning outcomes
- The students will be able after the course to use the folowing data analysis methods:
Descriptive statistics, data visualisation.
Tables of distribution functions.
Introduction to sampling design and experimental design.
Distribution of continuous and bivariate variables.
Application of binomial distribution in biology.
One sample testing.
Two sample testing.
Application of goodness-of-fit test in biology.
Analysis of variance (ANOVA), non - parametric ANOVA.
Corelation, linear regression. - Syllabus
