Teaching

I have taught 4 courses at the UNLV School of Public Health: PBH 365 (Applied Biostatistics for Public Health), EAB 770 (Applied Statistical Methods for Categorical Data), EAB 743 (Experimental Design for the Health Sciences), and EAB 796 (Independent Study: Introductory Data Science using R).

Courses

PBH 365 (Fall and Spring Semester)

This course provides an introduction to biostatistical concepts and reasoning and provides a survey of data and data types. Specific topics include tools for describing central tendency and variability in data; methods for performing inference on population means and proportions via sample data; statistical hypothesis testing and its application to group comparisons; issues of power and sample size in study designs; and random sample and other study types. While there are some formulae and computational elements to the course, the emphasis is on interpretation and concepts.

Syllabus can be accessed here.

EAB 770 (Fall Semester)

Focus on introducing methodology and statistical programming for categorical data analysis, including multi-way contingency tables, the logit model for binary responses, multi-category logit models for nominal and ordinal responses, and loglinear models. Sample SAS codes will be provided for each chapter.

R will be incorporated to this course soon.

Syllabus can be accessed here.

EAB 743 (Spring Semester)

This course is designed to provide thorough coverage of experimental design for students in the health sciences. Topics include single factor designs, factorial experiments, within-factor designs, nested designs, analysis of trend, and general linear models.
