Workshop

On the 2nd and 3rd of October the Burden of Disease Research Unit at the South African Medical Research Council in collaboration with the Division of Epidemiology and Biostatistics at teh University of Cape Town organises a workshop on sampling and survey data analysis.

The workshop is conducted by Dr Annibale Cois and Dr Makandwe Nyrenda of the South African Medical Research Council.

The target audience for this workshop are researchers, students, and professionals who want to acquire a deeper understanding of issues related to the analysis and interpretation of data gathered from samples of large populations. Previous knowledge or experience with survey data analysis is not required, but participants are assumed to be familiar with basic statistical concepts (such as bias, precision and probability sampling). A (short) recap of the statistical foundations of the techniques applied will introduce the workshop.

The course is offered in an in-person format, at the South African Medical Research Council Conference Centre in Cape Town, South Africa..
