Master advanced multivariate stats for healthcare using R-analyze trends, interactions, outliers, and logistic regression.
Master advanced multivariate stats for healthcare using R-analyze trends, interactions, outliers, and logistic regression.
In this comprehensive course from MGH Institute, you'll dive into advanced multivariate statistical methods essential for healthcare data analysis. The curriculum focuses on practical application while providing sufficient theoretical foundation to understand the mathematical underpinnings of statistical techniques. Over four structured modules, you'll learn to implement and interpret various regression models using the R statistical programming software. Starting with non-linear trends analysis, you'll progress to understanding interacting variables and identifying outliers that may affect your results. The course then transitions to logistic regression techniques, including how to perform diagnostic tests to validate your models. You'll also explore specialized variants such as ordinal, multinomial, and Poisson logistic regression. Each concept is reinforced through written content, video lectures, step-by-step activities, and assessments that mimic real-world healthcare scenarios. By completion, you'll be equipped with the analytical tools needed to interpret healthcare data effectively and make data-informed decisions in professional settings. This course is an integral component of the MicroMasters in Healthcare Data Analytics Toolkit program, providing essential skills for healthcare data analysis professionals.
