The MRC Biostatistics Unit run a number of successful courses in statistics on a range of topics at different levels, for statistical, clinical and other audiences. These courses take place in Cambridge at the Cambridge Institute of Public Health, and are mostly either 1 day or 2 days.

Limited spaces are available, so be sure to register in order to secure a place. Participants will be asked to bring their own laptops to the practicals.

Information about upcoming courses is given below.
