Data analysis and graphing using GraphPad Prism: An introduction (in collab. with CUSO)

Master the essentials of statistical analysis and data visualization with GraphPad Prism.
This practical workshop introduces participants to the core functionalities of GraphPad Prism for statistical analysis and scientific data presentation. Using a flipped-classroom approach, fundamental statistical concepts are covered through pre-course video lectures, allowing the workshop to focus primarily on interactive, hands-on exercises. Participants will learn how to perform and interpret common statistical analyses, including hypothesis testing, correlation and regression, multiple comparisons, and the selection of appropriate tests based on data types and experimental design. The course also provides extensive training in creating effective graphs and figures, understanding Prism's statistical outputs, and critically interpreting results. Particular emphasis is placed on best practices for data analysis, visualization, and reporting, as well as on recognizing common pitfalls such as data dredging and p-hacking. Through individual and group exercises, attendees will develop practical skills that can be directly applied to their own life science research projects.
