STATISTICS FOR ANALYTICAL CHEMISTS
TRAINING COURSE
This introductory course covers the fundamentals of statistics, relevant to all professionals in the analytical sciences, life sciences and related fields.
This course covers the basic concepts and methods of statistics with applications in the field of analytical sciences. During this course, we will demonstrate methods of exploring, organising, and presenting data, and introduce the fundamentals of probability.
Explore the foundations of statistical inference, including the concepts of parameters and estimates. Find out more about the use of statistical measures, confidence intervals, and hypothesis tests.
