Nonparametric Statistics Course
This course teaches nonparametric statistics for skewed, zero-heavy, and censored data common in clinical studies. Participants master robust tests like Wilcoxon and Kruskal-Wallis, effect sizes including Hodges-Lehmann and Cliff’s delta, quantile regression, bootstrapping, permutation tests, and reproducible workflows in R/Python. Hands-on practice covers exploratory data analysis, sensitivity checks, and reporting tailored to real-world challenges, ensuring reliable results in demanding research environments.

What will I learn?
Gain expertise in nonparametric methods for handling skewed, zero-inflated, and censored clinical data through practical, hands-on training. Key topics include robust estimators, rank-based tests such as Wilcoxon and Kruskal-Wallis, quantile and robust regression, cluster-adjusted techniques, and practical effect sizes like Cliff’s delta. Develop skills in exploratory data analysis, sensitivity analyses, bootstrapping, permutation testing, and creating reproducible reports in R or Python to tackle authentic clinical data issues.
