  • Biostatistics in epidemiology


    • Biostatistics in epidemiology
      In this section, we will cover the basics of biostatistics in epidemiology, an inferential statistic in epidemiology and errors in epidemiological measurements. 
    • What will you learn?

      By the end of the module, participants will be able to:  

      • explain the basic concepts of biostatistics in epidemiology, including application of descriptive and inferential statistics at the population level to accurately describe and conclude disease situations or events;
      • explain the types of errors in epidemiological measurements.

    • Descriptive statistic in epidemiology

      In this lesson, you will learn how to perform descriptive data analysis. Please watch the lecture by Dr. Sangeeta Rao, Biostatistician Epidemiologist, Animal Population Health Institute (APHI), Department of Clinical Sciences and College of Veterinary Medicine and Biomedical at Colorado State University.

      Please note: Downloadable presentation is at the end of the recorded lecture.

      Estimated time required: one hour, thirty minutes
