SUMMER SCHOOLS IN BIOSTATISTICS 2012

Introductory Course in Biostatistics
The workshop provides participants with an overview of fundamental biostatistical methods, an understanding of the key concept of variability and a practical working knowledge of the statistical techniques they are likely to encounter in applied medical research.

Advanced Course in Biostatistics - *New this year*
The success of the Introductory Course has led to a demand for an advanced course in Biostatistics.

This course is intended for those with a basic understanding of Statistical Ideas. The Introductory Course in Biostatistics (see above) would provide this, but a reasonable applied knowledge of designing and analysing simple studies would suffice.
