Course Overview
PR Statistics has partnered with R4ALL (www.r4all.org) to offer an introductory course to R, RStudio and statistics for Biologists.

The R4All team, with more than 20 years experience delivering this course, will boost you up the initial learning curve, streamline your data management and analysis workflows, and give you scalable solutions. You will develop and take away robust and repeatable workflows for visualisation and statistical analyses, ranging from t-tests and ANOVA to generalised linear models and mixed effects models.
