PH 212 Biostatistics: Interpretation & Appraisal

At the end of this six-week course, students will be confident, critical readers of the literature so they can appraise evidence to inform action. Students will have a shared vocabulary about basic statistics; and have skill in conducting and interpreting descriptive statistics, distinguishing between a sample and population, interpreting inferential statistics from hypothesis tests and multiple linear regression, and appraising the validity and generalizability of data and findings. Students will also be prepared for further learning and application, whether in biostatistics or advanced methods courses or using data and literature to make persuasive policy arguments.
