Free Course in Statistics and R
This Course will provide an introduction to basic statistics and statistical concepts and R programming skills necessary for analyzing data in the life sciences.
About The Statistics Course
This course teaches the R programming language in the context of statistical data and statistical analysis in the life sciences.
We will learn the basics of statistical inference in order to understand and compute p-values and confidence intervals, all while analyzing data with R code.
We provide R programming examples in a way that will help make the connection between concepts and implementation. Problem sets requiring R programming will be used to test understanding and ability to implement basic data analyses. We will use visualization techniques to explore new data sets and determine the most appropriate approach. We will describe robust statistical techniques as alternatives when data do not fit assumptions required by the standard approaches. By using R scripts to analyze data, you will learn the basics of conducting reproducible research.
