Faculty in the group teach in a variety of formal and informal settings; materials that support some of this teaching are archived in this wiki. If you would like to re-use them for your own teaching, please e-mail goncalo@umich.edu.
BIOSTAT 666 Statistical and Numerical Methods in Human Genetics
Gene mapping studies aim to study the relationship between genetic variation and susceptibility to human disease. These studies can be used to elucidate the biochemical basis of medically interesting traits leading to knowledge that will, ultimately, help us improve treatment and management of human disease.
Biostatistics 666 is a Masters level course that introduces many of the numerical methods and concepts useful for these types of study.
BIOSTAT 615 / 815 Statistical Computing
Computational methods are an essential tool for tackling many statistical problems. This course aims to provide students with a practical understanding of computational challenges and approaches related to modern statistical computing. Most of the examples will be in C++ and a prior introduction to statistics and computing is recommended.
Most recently, the course was taught by Hyun Min Kang.
