General description and relevant information

This course introduces methods and tools to describe, analyze and extract statistical conclusions from health data. It presents 4 major statistical areas: Advanced Regression Analysis, Survival Analysis, Bayesian Analysis and Causal Inference. For each one, the main areas of application are discussed and the relevant libraries in R are introduced. The course prepares the students to identify the best method in several particular biomedical scenarios.

This course is coordinated by Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya (Dept. Statitsics and Operations Research)
