Help! Statistics! lecture series

The Help! Statistics lecture series is intended for all researchers at the UMCG. We aim to review statistical and methodological issues that are relevant in everyday research practice in an accessible, easy-to-digest way. Speakers in the series include methodologists and statisticians from departments across the UMCG. The lecture series is part of the research program Life Course Epidemiology, and organised by the program leaders Nynke Smidt (unit Health Behaviour Epidemiology) and Gerton Lunter (unit Statistics and Decision Making).
