MI205-IS: R Programming for Pharmacometrics (2 CR)
Product Description
Independent Study
Spring 2012
Course Description: MI205 covers introductory through intermediate-level R programming topics with a focus on pharmacometric applications through lectures and hands-on lab sessions. Topics include basic R language constructs, data import/export, writing scripts and functions, manipulating data objects, traditional and lattice graphics, and basic statistical methods. This course also makes extensive use of the MIfuns package to teach and implement tasks such as population PK data set assembly, post-processing of Maximum Likelihood and Bayesian modeling output, exploratory and report-quality graphics and tables, and automation of compute intensive methods, such as bootstrapping and posterior predictive check model qualification. Participants may apply the 2 credit hours from this course to the Metrum Institute Certificate Program in Pharmacometrics.
Independent Study: This course is being offered as an independent study online. See the Metrum Institute Independent Study Course Policy for more information.
Prerequisites: None.
Computer Hardware/Software: This course requires a Windows computer with a web browser and R installed for hands-on examples.
