This class presents the fundamental probability and statistical concepts used in elementary data analysis. It will be taught at an introductory level for students with junior or senior college-level mathematical training including a working knowledge of calculus. A small amount of linear algebra and programming are useful for the class, but not required.

Introduction, Probability, Expectations, and Random Vectors
You are about to undergo an intense and demanding immersion into the world of mathematical biostatistics. Over the next few weeks, you will learn about probability, expectations, conditional probabilities, distributions, confidence intervals, bootstrapping, binomial proportions, and much more. Module 1 covers experiments, probability, variables, mass functions, density functions, cumulative distribution functions, expectations, variations, and vectors.

Principales revisiones sobre MATHEMATICAL BIOSTATISTICS BOOT CAMP 1
por DHJun 4, 2017
I knew a lot about probability before starting this course, but I didn't know much of anything about frequentist statistics. This course helped me understand some tricky concepts.
por PBJan 11, 2016
Very concise, well-presented course. This was my second time taking it as a refresher. Prof. Caffo does a great job presenting the materials. However, prepare to be challenged.
por JBJul 8, 2017
Great course, though a little difficult in parts, particularly the first week. Worth working through though for a better understanding of probability and statistics.
por BEApr 5, 2018
This course is phenomenally well developed with great curriculum and materials for building astrong base to enter into statistics with a strong base of knowledge.
por KJMay 31, 2017
Overall good lectures and good practice material. Certainly not an introductory stat course - requires working knowledge of calculus and basic biostats.
por NBJan 17, 2016
I enjoyed the course. I wish there was perhaps a little more evaluation along the way (maybe occasional in-lecture questions), but otherwise very nice.
por HCJan 3, 2016
Good course, needs updating, since it was a first generation course. Worth taking, but make sure to review a bit of Calculus, especially integration.
por JYOct 19, 2015
Topics presented well for comprehension, good lecture quality.\n\nThese topics are covered in grad level statistics courses at certain universities.
