Thematik

The aim of the course is: reviewing and processing data and characterization using graphical and numerical tools, probability and statistical conclusion/decision, basic statistical methods commonly used in medicine and medical practice.

The other goal is introducing and practising the basics of statistical thinking. The skills and competences can be developed with statistics in scientific background and daily work of medicine. Analytical and critical thinking are of high importance in medical decision making, and there is also an opportunity to develop these skills within the subject.
