Ragon Institute Ghebremichael Lab
Application and development of statistical methods
Lab Overview
The Ghebremichael Lab specializes in the application and development of statistical methods, including data management, data analysis and more, for HIV/AIDS, TB, and immunologic research. We are dedicated to ensuring that studies are well-designed, correctly analyzed, clearly presented, and correctly interpreted.
We provide expertise in the planning, conduct and analysis of research with the goal of enhancing the scientific quality of research at the institute. We also provide training in software use, statistical analysis and other quantitative tools for members of the Ragon Institute. The training, given in either a course or a one-on-one meeting, includes education on statistical methods and software, such as SAS, R, and MATLAB.
