STAT818: Epidemiological Methods |
An introduction to the more commonly used research study designs--randomised prospective trials, case control studies, cohort studies and cross-sectional studies--with applications to epidemiological problems. Statistical methods for analysing data from such studies, with particular emphasis on categorical data analysis, including logistic and Poisson regression, and models for censored survival data. SAS (version 9) and EcStat, an add-in program in MS Excel, are used throughout this unit.
