Graduate Courses
55-518. Experimental Design and Analysis in Biological Research
Discussion of philosophical and quantitative approaches used to investigate biological systems, with emphasis on design and implementation of efficient and unbiased experiments. Students will use expertise acquired in lectures and readings to constructively evaluate their own and others' research proposals through round table discussions and individual presentation.
Prerequisite/corequisite: 55-320, or consent of instructor.
(2 discussion hours a week.)
