INTER-MD 21713 Advanced Methods in Observational Data Analysis (Biostatistics III) (3 Credits)
Typically offered every year
This is the third and most advanced installment of the biostatistics courses. The goal of this course is to provide students with knowledge and skills necessary for understanding indications and interpretation of statistical approaches used in comparative effectiveness research. A broad range of topics, more typically taught over several semesters, will be covered in a condensed format focusing on aspects of greatest relevance to clinician-researchers. In addition, students will have opportunities to apply statistical techniques using common software packages including SAS and Stata. This course extends understanding of epidemiologic concepts and methods by providing applied training in the conduct of secondary data analysis studies using either SAS or Stata. Using data from the National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent Health Wave IV (adulthood; 2008), students will identify a research question; define a causal model, specific aims, and hypotheses based on review of extant literature; gain experience in management and conditioning of the data; conduct stratified analyses to assess effect modification and confounding; implement the backwards elimination method of model building using logistic regression to obtain multivariable results; interpret results with respect to the strength and precision of estimates, selection and information bias and confounding, and generalizability.

INTER-MD 21715 Meta-Analyses and Systematic Reviews Course (3 Credits)
Typically offered every year
This course is designed to train students in the conduct of a systematic literature review, considered by many investigators to be the highest level of evidence for answering clinical questions and developing the skills to conduct a review built on the framework of evidence-based practice. This is a graduate‐level course designed to highlight rigorous systematic review methods. The course comprises of didactics classroom sessions and lectures on the topic as well as hands on conduct of a systematic review on a topic. Students will be taught how to perform each step in a review and apply it to a topic of their choosing. The students, at the beginning of the class, will be asked to choose one topic of interest or will be provided a topic of interest and will be taken through the process of systematic review of the topic. Lab sessions will focus on practical aspects of meta analysis. For the “lab” sessions, students are required to bring their laptop. Analyses will be performed using RevMan software, which is available as a free download. The final deliverable for the course will be a systematic literature review presentation.
