  7. Analysis & Modeling • Descriptive statistics and simple hypothesis testing • Categorical data analysis • Linear, generalized linear, and mixed effects models • Survival analysis • Multivariate and longitudinal data • Exploratory data analysis (clustering techniques, tree-based model fitting) • Bioinformatics, statistical genetics Guy Brock, StCC
