This is a refresher course aimed at PhD candidates. The level is that of a second course in Statistics. We will refresh basic knowledge of Probability, Statistical Inference (Estimation with confidence intervals and Testing), t-tests, standard cases of the Linear Model: Regression, ANOVA and ANCOVA. For our analyses we use software written in R. Programs will be provided.
Other topics: Experimental Design, Non-parametric Tests, and Chi-square Tests. Some time is reserved to discuss statistical problems of the participants.
