 \n\nProgramme\n\nThe Sanger Institute Graduate Computational Skills Progra
 mme\n\nModule 7: Extending the linear model\n\nDuring the Core statistics 
 sessions we provided a strong foundation in practical statistics and data 
 analysis. We highlighted that many statistical tests are actually all vari
 ations on the same principle: the linear model.\n\nThe linear model is app
 ropriate in many cases\, where the response variable is continuous and a s
 et of underlying statistical assumptions are met. However\, what to do whe
 n this is not the case?\n\nIn this one-day course we give a brief overview
  of what your options are when the standard linear model is no longer suit
 able. We cover situations where your response variable is non-continuous (
 generalised linear models) or your data are not independent (linear mixed 
 models).\n\nWe discuss this in the context of experimental design: having 
 awareness of what your data will look like by the end of the experiment ca
 n avoid common pitfalls\, such as treating technical repeats as biological
  ones or treating count data as continuous.\n\nThis module consists of 1 f
 ull day sessions. \n\nDelivery\n\nAll sessions are in-person.
