Topic
Give a chance to have more practice to solve problems in Biometrics using PC and the SPSS software in the computer room. This was a regular need of the students earlier since the special way how a MD should handle the typical medical problems (special way of thinking) was not founded by the secondary school education. This foundation is an important focus point of the Biometrics course. It seems, the weekly 1+1 lectures were not enough for most of the students for completing this important goal: To develop some brand new skills.
This course offers an organized way for that extra practices. It offers also some 'brushing up' chances for those who has completed Biometrics earlier.
