Abstract:
Biostatistics are omnipresent in the scientific and medical literature and are an essential skill for any health student. We have developed a practical training tool - GMRC Shiny stats - an interactive application specifically dedicated to medical data statistical analysis. The application has been designed to provide an analysis workflow corresponding to the usual progression of an experienced statistician during data analysis. The most common statistical analyses can be performed (descriptive statistics, inferences according to frequentist methods, survival analyses, correlation, agreement measurements, etc.). GMRC Shiny stats is intuitive and user-friendly and assists students in choosing the most appropriate statistical tests. With all these functionalities, students can learn statistical analysis by doing. Getting involved in the statistical analysis and processing of their own data is likely to improve their biostatistics skills.
