BIOSTATISTICS

Transcript: STATISTICAL TECHNIQUES Observational study An example of an observational study is one that explores the correlation between smoking and lung cancer. This type of study typically uses a survey to collect observations about the area of interest and then performs statistical analysis. In this case, the researchers would collect observations of both smokers and non-smokers, perhaps through a case-control study, and then look for the number of cases of lung cancer in each group. There are four main levels of measurement used in statistics: nominal, ordinal, interval, and ratio. Each of these have different degrees of usefulness in statistical research. Ratio measurements have both a meaningful zero value and the distances between different measurements defined; they provide the greatest flexibility in statistical methods that can be used for analyzing the data. STEPS BIOSTATISTICS 1. Planning the Research 2. Designing the Experiments 3. Performing the Experiment 4. Further examining the data set in secondary analyses, to suggest new hypotheses for future study. 5. Documenting and presenting the results of the study An experimental study involves taking measurements of the system under study, manipulating the system, and then taking additional measurements using the same procedure to determine if the manipulation has modified the values of the measurements. In contrast, an observational study does not involve experimental manipulation. Instead, data are gathered and correlations between predictors and response are investigated. Interval estimation 1 Experiments A common goal for a statistical research project is to investigate causality, and in particular to draw a conclusion on the effect of changes in the values of predictors or independent variables on dependent variables or response. - to define normally - to test whether the difference between two populations, regarding a particular attribute is real or a chance of occurence - to study the correlation or association between two or more attributes in the same population - to evaluate the efficacy of vaccines, sera, etc. by control studies - to evaluate the achievements of public health programs - to fix priorities in public health programs USES Experimental and observational studies Because variables conforming only to nominal or ordinal measurements cannot be reasonably measured numerically, sometimes they are grouped together as categorical variables, whereas ratio and interval measurements are grouped together as quantitative variables, which can be either discrete or continuous, due to their numerical nature. WHAT IS BIOSTATISTICS? Confidence intervals allow statisticians to express how closely the sample estimate matches the true value in the whole population. Often they are expressed as 95% confidence intervals. - statistics is the science of competing, classifying and tabulating numerical data and expressing results in a mathematical/ graphical data. - biostatistics is that branch of statistics concerned with mathematical facts and data relating to biological events. -is the application of statistics to problems in the biological sciences, health, and medicine. 3 Levels of measurement 2

Transcript: Created by Allyson for Pre-Calc 12 Take-Out and Bio Statistics Take-Out Take-Out I chose the episode "Take-Out" where there are a series of robberies at different fancy restaurants. The mathematician, Charlie, must figure out a way to pin point the robber's next location. The Solution The Solution In order to bust the robbers, Charlie and the rest of the team must figure out a strategy that leads them to the next location the robbers will hit. One way to do that is to use probability and statistics. Probability -Probability is defined as "the measure of the likelihood that an event will occur. -In order to calculate the probability of something, you must divide the number of favorable (to the advantage of something) outcomes by the number of total outcomes. -To find probability in the episode "Take-Out" you would divide the number of restaurants the robbers are most likely to rob by the number of total restaurants in the area. Probability -Statistics is defined as the collection of data for interpretation and organization purposes. -In the episode, the investigation team collected data, which in this case was the reports of the robberies. -An example relating to the episode could be for instance, we select 10 restaurants out of 20 in the area, the average amount of money withheld at the restaurants would be an example of a statistic. Statistics Statistics Bio Statistics Bio Statistics Bio Statistics is the application of statistics to different aspects of biology, their job is to make sense of all of the data. Bio Statisticians are the ones who answer questions like "Does this new drug really work?", or "What causes cancer?" and even "How long is a person with said illness likely to survive?" A real life example of this, is professor Samuel Wasser who collected the data from the tusks and feces off of elephants to pinpoint where poaching happens in Africa. Calculating In order to calculate statistical data, you need to use this formula.
