| Content | The goal of the first block of this course is to (1) identify and explain basic statistical principles that are widely applicable to the analysis biomedical data and (2) show how these principles can be translated into practice using MATLAB as the programming environment. Covered topics will include probability distributions, error bars and confidence intervals, statistical significance, regression, correlation and multivariate analysis. |
