Course in generalized linear models with biological applications

In spring 2006 (start: 3 April) the Unit of Statistic and Decision Analysis offers a course in generalized linear models with biological applications.

The course introduces the modeling (regression analysis) of non-normal observations as for example counts and proportions. Methods to handle correlated observations (repeated or longitudinal) are also covered.

The lectures are accompanied by computing practicals using the statistical package 'R'. Due to its versatility and graphical capacities it has something to offer even to the experienced SAS user.

The course is open to all students and DIAS employees (PhD students have preference, though) and the course is free. The course is approved as a PhD course (9 ECTS points) on KVL.
