Preparation and
Review Statistical software JMP student edition will be used.

In the lectures and JMP workshops, we will cover the following topics. You will engage in hands-on activities, conducting analysis using sample data and practicing summarizing the results for research papers.
Lesson 1: medical research, basic JMP operations, data importation, mean, median, standard deviation, interquartile range, cross-tabulation, p-values, principles of hypothesis testing.
Lesson 2: Paired or un-paired data, t-tests, Wilcoxon signed-rank test (Mann-Whitney U test), paired t-tests, chi-square test, Fisher's exact test, Type I and Type II errors, multiple comparison, analysis of variance (ANOVA), post-hoc tests.
Lesson 3: Scatter plots, correlation and association, correlation coefficient, simple linear regression analysis, absolute precision, sample size determination for estimation, power analysis, sample size determination for between-group comparisons (hypothesis testing).
Lesson 4: Time-to-event data, survival analysis, Kaplan-Meier curves, log-rank test, questionnaire form, confounding, adjusted odds ratio, logistic regression analysis.

Requirements Bring your notebook PC.(Mac or Win). Active participation is required.
Before starting the lecture, please install JMP student edition.
