Course Description This course is geared towards physician researchers to provide hands-on experience with statistical methods that go beyond the basics to enhance grant writing skills. Students who are actively developing grants are encouraged to use the course to develop their methods section and/or analyze preliminary data. Topics include sample size calculations, clustered data, interrupted time series analysis, multilevel modeling, and longitudinal data analysis techniques. The course will take place over six 3.5-hour sessions conducted on Zoom. Each session will begin with a lecture introducing the analysis methods covered which will be followed by a lab session in which students will use SAS to conduct exercises implementing the analytic techniques (datasets and example code will be provided). Lab sessions will include individual and breakout group work. Course assignments will include readings, labs (which will not be graded), short quizzes on the analysis methods, assignments and a final project in which students will develop an analytic plan, conduct a data analysis and present findings (students can use their own or a course-provided dataset). Each student must have a full-version of SAS installed (SAS University and SAS OnDemand will not be sufficient for this course) and SAS experience is strongly preferred.
