Learning outcomes

At the end of this course, students should be able to: A1: carry out simple data analysis using a spreadsheet A2: understand the main statistical concepts in a scientific article

Goals

Knowledge in the biomedical field is constantly evolving through scientific research in which statistical data analysis is central. The objective of this course is to provide the student with the statistical concepts necessary to critically read the biomedical literature.

Assessment method

The assessment of the A1 learning outcome is done out of session during the practical sessions. There is no second session for the assessment of the practical work. The assessment of the A2 learning outcome is done by means of a written examination in session. The final mark (/20) is the sum of the TP mark (/6) and the written exam (/14).
