Bios 9132 - Advanced Clinical Trial Methodology, Karl E. Peace Apr 2015

Bios 9132 - Advanced Clinical Trial Methodology, Karl E. Peace

Jiann-Ping Hsu College of Public Health Syllabi

Students are introduced to regulatory, scientific, statistical and practical aspects of methods inherent in design, monitoring and analyzing clinical trials. Clinical trials in many areas of drug development are presented, discussed and critiqued.


Bios 6332 - Experimental Design In Biostat, Jingjing Yin Apr 2015

Bios 6332 - Experimental Design In Biostat, Jingjing Yin

Jiann-Ping Hsu College of Public Health Syllabi

This course introduces the methods for analyzing biomedical and health related data using ANOVA methods. The course will involve one-way and two-way ANOVA with fixed or/and random effects and sample size/power calculation. And Logistic and Poisson regression models will also be addressed. The students will learn how to apply SAS procedures PROC POWER, PROC GLM, PROC MIXED, PROC GENMOD and PROC GLIMMIX and interpret the results of analysis. Emphasis will also be placed on the development of critical thinking skills.


Bios 7131 - Survival Analysis, Lili Yu Apr 2015

Bios 7131 - Survival Analysis, Lili Yu

Jiann-Ping Hsu College of Public Health Syllabi

This course introduces statistical methods for analyzing data collected on the time to an event, referred to as survival data, in medical research and other health-related fields. Emphasis will be placed on the application of the methodology and computational aspects rather than theory. The students will learn how to apply SAS procedures to data and interpret the results.


Bios 9134 - Stochastic Processes For Systems Biology, Daniel Linder Apr 2015

Bios 9134 - Stochastic Processes For Systems Biology, Daniel Linder

Jiann-Ping Hsu College of Public Health Syllabi

This course provides the student with an introduction to stochastic processes with emphasis on Markov chains, The Poisson Process, Brownian Motion and other continuous time processes. The theory developed will be used to model and simulate complex biochemical reaction networks and perform network inference given data from the stochastic trajectory of a biological process, typically arising from microarray or next generation sequencing experiments.


Bios 9433 - Analysis With Missing & Miss-Specified Data, Robert Vogel Apr 2015

Bios 9433 - Analysis With Missing & Miss-Specified Data, Robert Vogel

Jiann-Ping Hsu College of Public Health Syllabi

This course is designed to provide the student with the basics of methods for analyzing data with missing data and misspecified data. This course will cover the following topics: missing data in experiments, complete case analysis, weighted complete case analysis, available case analysis, single imputation methods such as mean, regression, last value varied forward, hot deck imputation, cold deck imputation, Bayes Imputation, Multiple imputation, and non-ignorable missing data models. Prerequisite: A minimum grade of “B” in BIOS 9131. Co-requisite: BIOS 9231.

Chbe 9230 - Community-Based Public Health Program Planning And Evaluation, Moya L. Alfonso Apr 2015

Chbe 9230 - Community-Based Public Health Program Planning And Evaluation, Moya L. Alfonso

Jiann-Ping Hsu College of Public Health Syllabi

This course introduces students to the theory and application of community-based program planning and evaluation. Concepts in community assessment, organization, and mobilization for the purposes of addressing identified public health concerns will serve as the foundation for the public health planning process. Appropriate techniques of partnership building, planning strategies, data collection, data analysis, and evidence-based decision-making will also be introduced.


Bios 6541 - Biostatistics, Hani Samawi Apr 2015

Bios 6541 - Biostatistics, Hani Samawi

Jiann-Ping Hsu College of Public Health Syllabi

This course examines statistics in public health and related sciences, including sampling, probability, basic discrete and continuous distributions, descriptive statistics, hypothesis testing, confidence intervals, categorical data analysis, regression, and correlation. Emphasis will be on the development of critical thinking skills and health data analysis applications with computer software.
