BIOS5002 Linear Models

This course will provide a foundation for the practical analysis of data for which the primary outcome is a continuous variable. The course will begin with an introduction to ‘real-world’ data analysis with a motivating example looking at predictors of infant birthweight in Hong Kong. Methods for multivariate analysis of predictors of continuous outcomes including one-way and two-way ANOVA and multiple linear regression will then be discussed in detail with an emphasis on correct use of these methods in practice.
