Dear all,
We are excited to announce our upcoming online course, "Introduction to the Analysis of Longitudinal Data in Biology Using R", which will be held on November 25th -28th.
Course website: https://www.physalia-courses.org/courses-workshops/longitudinal-data-in-r/
Course Overview:
This course will explore methods for analysing longitudinal data—data repeated in time, space, or other dimensions—common in biology. You’ll learn how to address challenges in processing, analysing, and interpreting such data through both classical statistical and machine-learning approaches. Topics include forecasting, survival analysis, epidemiology, and gene-expression experiments.
By the end of this course, you will:
- Understand how to recognise and address spatial and temporal dependencies.
- Gain knowledge of the most common methods for analysing repeated records.
- Apply forecasting methods to real-world biological data.
- Explore applications in epidemiology and gene expression.
- Design, analyse, and interpret scientific experiments with a time component.
This course is ideal for advanced students, researchers, and professionals working in biology and related fields. Familiarity with R and basic statistics will be helpful.
