Winter 2015: HS 852: Schedule
Scientific Methods for Health Sciences: Linear Modeling
The table below shows an outline of the material we plan to cover for each week. Students
do not need to read ahead of lecture, however after each class should review the covered
topics from the
Scientific Methods for Health Sciences EBook.
