The Statistical Learning Book Club is led by epidemiology DPH student Jesica Rodriguez-Lopez and epidemiology MPH student Lucas Schiffer. This group meets once a week on Fridays from 10 to 11 AM EST and members take turns presenting sections of the textbook Data Analysis for the Life Sciences. All are welcome to join and only a curiosity for statistics is required.
Data Analysis for the Life Sciences can be found:
The first book we read was An Introduction to Statistical Learning.
