Analysis of Biomedical Data

Base Knowledge

Basics of Statistics and Probabilities. Usual probability distributions in Statistical Inference.

Teaching Methodologies

The teaching methods are essentially the lecture method, in lectures, and the resolution of exercises by the
students in practical classes. Software will be used in the laboratory when the different statistical analysis
techniques require it.

Learning Results

The main goal is to present statistical methods applied to health sciences, with emphasis on statistical
modeling and survival analysis. Students should be able to understand and apply statistical techniques to
biomedical data analysis, in order to support clinical research.
