Basic statistics in GraphPad Prism 9

Target Audience:
All VIB staff
Location:

 online   

General context

This course consists of videos, 1 live session and 1 Q&A session. 

___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

The course will consist of:

  • a theoretical session to explain the statistics behind Prism 9
  • videos and a live demo session to show you how to do statistics in Prism 9
  • two Q&A sessions where your questions will be answered and where you apply this knowledge on your own data or on real-life example data
Learning outcomes

The following topics will be covered:

  • How to use Prism 9 for simple statistical analyses: t tests, one-way ANOVA and non-parametric counterparts
  • How to use Prism 9 for more advanced statistical analyses: two-way ANOVA 
  • How to use Prism 9 to create graphs
  • Regression in Prism 9
  • Survival analysis in Prism 9

Additional topics will be added depending on the needs of the participants. Participants can analyze their own data on the training.

Event intended for

To be able to join this course you need to have Prism 7, Prism 8 or Prism 9 software installed on your computer. Older versions of Prism are very different from Prism 9 and will not be covered.

VIB Bioinformatics Core distributes the Prism software for free to VIB scientists, for more information you can visit the VIB GraphPad Prism page on www.bits.vib.be.
