BME 710 - EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN & DATA ANALYSIS IN BIOMEDICAL ENGINEERING (C)

3 cr hrs

Description This course is intended to introduce students to basic concepts and tools of experimental design and statistical analysis in biomedical research. We will discuss how to design and execute an experiment and how to use various statistical tools to estimate data parameters and test hypotheses. It is expected that students will be able to formulate a rational hypothesis from biological theory, design an experiment to test the hypothesis, and use an appropriate statistical analysis to examine the hypothesis and interpret the results upon completion of this course. The primary objective of this course is to help students understand the methodological and practical principles needed to undertake biological research and evaluate others’ research as published in the biomedical literature.
