  • Lecturer: Youngchan Kim, PhD in Quantum Biology
  • Topics covered: testing normality, Student’s t-test, Mann-Whitney U test, ANOVA, two-way ANOVA, Chi-square test, correlation, linear regression, figure legends, and data analysis using GraphPad Prism
  • GraphPad Prism: software used for data input, summary statistics, inferential statistics, curve-fitting, and accessing GraphPad Prism on campus: nearly 100 PCs in the main library to which GraphPad is installed and all the PCs on the ground floor of AP building in teaching labs 1 to 6 have GraphPad installed
  • User guides: GraphPad General User Guide, GraphPad statistics guide, and GraphPad Curve-fitting guide available online
  • Data input: easy way is to open Excel and copy paste data fields; check GraphPad Guide for importing and exporting data
  • Data analysis: descriptive statistics, testing normality, Student’s t-test, Mann-Whitney U test, ANOVA, two-way ANOVA, Chi-square test, correlation, and linear regression How to analyze: figure legends should be descriptive and inferential statistics, X and Y-axis legends should be modified if needed.
