These courses are intended to provide a strong foundation in practical statistics and data analysis.
The underlying philosophy of the courses is to treat statistics as a practical skill rather than as a theoretical subject.
Analysing your own data: a workshop on statistics and experimental design (IN-PERSON)
This week-long course (15-19 April 2024) is aimed at people with little or no experience using statistical analyses in research. It introduces participants to core concepts in statistics and experimental design, aimed at ensuring that the resulting data is able to address the research question using appropriate statistical methods.

Core Statistics using R
In this course, we explore classical statistical analysis techniques starting with simple hypothesis testing and building up to linear models and power analyses. The focus of the course is on practical implementation of these techniques and developing robust statistical analysis skills rather than on the underlying statistical theory.

Experimental Design for statistical analysis
This one-day course is primarily aimed at life science researchers, but covers many topics that are applicable to other fields. It combines key theoretical knowledge with practical application, which will aid researchers in designing effective experiments. The focus throughout the course is to link experimental design to a clear analysis strategy. This ensures that the collected data will be suitable for statistical analysis.
