This course will allow students to acquire good knowledge of fundamental and advance statistical tools in biology and microbial ecology and to learn how to implement statistical analysis with the software R.

The course will be organized as follows : 

• Generalized linear models, 
• Experimental designs with ANOVAs, 
• Multivariate analysis (PCA, FA, PCoA, Hierarchical clustering), 
• Multivariate regressions (PerMANOVA, CCA, RDA), 
• Introduction to the analysis of microbial diversity. 

Students will also be required to complete a project for which they will analyze a dataset from the scientific literature and give a 20 minutes oral presentation on how they managed to analyze the data using the techniques they will have seen during the semester.
