The theme of the 16th Annual Health Research Methods 2013 course is“Integrating Evidence into Real World Settings”. This year’s Program

features workshops, delivered by experts, on an array of health research methods and their application to policy and practice settings.

With this theme in mind, we encourage participation by health professionalswho are involved in planning, managing, evaluating and providing healthservices; and others who wish to know more about research and evidence-informed practice and policy.

Keynote sessions will frame each day of the course. On the first day, Dr Lee A Green(Professor and Chair, Department of Family Medicine, University of Alberta) willtalk about formative, mixed methods research to improve primary health care.On the second day, we will hear from Dr Juliet R Guichon (Assistant Professor,Department of Community Health Sciences, University of Calgary), whose talkwill focus on health science research in the context of constitutional litigation.

We look forward to your participation in this year’s Course!

Wednesday MAY 1, 2013SATELLITE BIOSTATISTICS COURSEBasics of Biostatistics:Understanding and Using Data AnalysisDr Kent Hecker

Health professionals are increasingly required to critically evaluate health data as a basis for the delivery of evidence-informed practice. The general objective of this course is for participants to understand the conceptual basis, use and shortcomings ofcommon statistical methods used in the analyses of health data. Examples from recentlypublished research are employed to exemplify various statistical methods and researchdesigns. The focus of the course is on conceptual, practical and user issues rather thanmathematical theory underlying the statistical procedures. Topics will include descriptiveanalyses, significance testing, confidence intervals, identification and control of confounding variables, and parametric and non-parametric analyses.

SPECIFIC OBJECTIVESParticipants will be able to:• Distinguish between effective and poor analyses of data• Identify and appropriate statistical analyses• Run and interpret basic descriptive and inferential statistics

Dr Kent Hecker is an Assistant Professor of Psychometrics in the Department ofVeterinary Clinical and Diagnostic Sciences, Faculty of Veterinary Medicine andDepartment of Community Health Sciences, Faculty of Medicine. He has 10 years of experience teaching introductory as well as advanced biostatistics to medical and other health professionals.
