The Institute consists of a series of two-and-a-half day workshops designed to introduce geneticists to modern methods of statistical analysis and to introduce statisticians to the statistical challenges posed by modern genetic data. Prerequisites are minimal, and the modular nature of the Institute enables participants to design a program best suited to their backgrounds and interests. Most participants take two or three modules.
Individuals attending the Institute will receive certificates of course completion in recognition of their participation.
In 2013 there will be two concurrent summer institutes in Seattle. Details about the Summer Institute in Statistics and Modeling in Infectious Diseases, 8-24 July 2013, are available online at: depts.washington.edu/sismid/. The Summer Institute in Statistical Genetics modules are timed such that participants may also register for modules for the Summer Institute in Statistics and Modeling in Infectious Diseases. Registration for each Institute is available only online via each Institute’s website.
We are also pleased to host the Summer Institute in Biostatistics, 12-16 August 2013, University of Washington, Seattle, WA. This summer institute consists of a series of two-and-a-half day workshops designed to introduce researchers to the modern methods of statistical analysis in clinical trials and to introduce statisticians to the statistical challenges posed by clinical trials.
Registration for each Institute will be available 1 March 2013, and is only available online via each Institute’s website.
