Learn Statistics and R online from Harvard by David Smith.
Starts January 19 (tomorrow)
From the post:
Harvard University is offering a free 5-week on-line course on Statistics and R for the Life Sciences on the edX platform. The course promises you will learn the basics of statistical inference and the basics of using R scripts to conduct reproducible research. You’ll just need a backround in basic math and programming to follow along and complete homework in the R language.
As a new course, I haven’t seen any of the content, but the presenters Rafael Irizarry and Michael Love are active contributors to the Bioconductor project, so it should be good. The course begins January 19 and registration is open through 27 April at the link below.
Apologies for the late notice!
Have you given any thought to an R for Voters course? Statistics using R on public data focused on current political issues? Something to think about. The talking heads on TV are already vetting possible candidates for 2016.
