Dear all,

We are pleased to announce a new SIB course:

“Introduction to statistics for biologists”

which will take place in Geneva during the week of 7-11 February 2011.

This course is designed to provide graduate students in the biomedical sciences with experience in the application of basic statistical analysis techniques to a variety of biological problems.

Attendees will work through short tutorials on the topics discussed in the class. During the practical exercises students will learn how to work with the widely used “R” language and environment for statistical computing and graphics.

Registration is now open; see the web site for more details.

The list of all SIB courses is available from the SIB website at:
