DESCRIPTION:This course is intended to provide a strong foundation in pract
 ical statistics and data analysis using the R software environment. The un
 derlying philosophy of the course is to treat statistics as a practical sk
 ill rather than as a theoretical subject and as such the course focuses on
  methods for addressing real-life issues in the biological sciences using 
 the R software package.\n\nIn this course we explore classical statistical
  analysis techniques starting with simple hypothesis testing and building 
 up to multiple linear regression. The focus of the course is on practical 
 implementation of these techniques and developing robust statistical analy
 sis skills rather than on the underlying statistical theory.\n\nAfter the 
 course you should feel confident to be able to select and implement common
  statistical techniques using R and moreover know when\, and when not\, to
  apply these techniques.\n\nThis event is supported by the BBSRC Strategic
  Training Awards for Research Skills (STARS) grant (BB/P022766/1).\n\nThe 
 training room is located on the first floor and there is currently no whee
 lchair or level access available to this level.\n\nPlease note that if you
