About this Class

In partnership with the NIH Clinical Center's Biostatistics and Clinical Epidemiology Service (BCES), the NIH Library is offering classes geared to cover general concepts behind statistics and epidemiology. This four-part lecture series will help participants better understand statistical and epidemiological features in biomedical research, interpret results and findings, design and prepare studies, and understand/critically review the results in published literature. 

Part 3 will describe the basic concepts for using common statistical tests such as Chi-square, paired and two-sample t-tests, ANOVA, correlations, simple and multiple regression, logistic regression, and survival analysis. During the class, time will be devoted to questions from attendees and references will be provided for in-depth self-study.

The first part of the class will be 10:00 a.m. - 12:00 p.m. followed by a break from 12:00-1:00 p.m. The class resume at 1:00 p.m. and conclude at 4:00 p.m.

Although you may attend any part of this series by itself, attending all four parts will provide a more comprehensive review of important statistical and epidemiological considerations that build on each other.

You must register separately for each part of this class series.
