The GTPB is proud to announce that the above referenced hands-on  
training course is open for applications

IMPORTANT DATES for this Course
    Deadline for applications: Aug 30th 2017

Course Description:
This is one of our "Foundations" type courses, providing a systematic  
and detailed review of fundamental concepts and techniques in  
Biostatistics. Participants can expect to go through a set of  
exercises that are based on biomedical problems. These exercises are  
preceded by short lectures that are simple to follow. The lectures are  
designed to provide the conceptual framework that is needed to release  
the training power of the exercises, not to flood the participants  
with formality, which will be kept to a minimum. We will make use of a  
highly interactive methodology, taking advantage of our well equipped  
Bioinformatics training room. With this approach, we expect to bring  
the participants to a high degree of usage independence in using the  
methods that we cover.
Main topics: Descriptive Statistics; Probability; Statistical  
Inference; Design of Experiments.
