DESCRIPTION:This intermediate level course is one of our Foundations course
 s. It covers essential statistical concepts and methods for extracting ins
 ights from empirical data in the life sciences. The course positions appli
 ed statistics\, starting from important aspects of experimental design and
  data exploration. We then move into statistical modeling and data analysi
 s. We will focus on the link between linear regression and analysis of var
 iance. Together\, these methods contribute to the study of General Linear 
 Models. The course also introduces the basics of non-parametric testing\, 
 and addresses categorical data analysis and logistic regression.\n\nThe co
 ncepts and methods are exclusively introduced via case-studies in the life
  sciences. For every study we elaborate on a concrete research question an
 d then provide a study design\, which is followed by data exploration. Nex
 t\, we will focus on how to model the data and elaborate on the link betwe
 en model parameters and the subject matter research question.\n
