Wondering how to get started with your IACUC protocol and what requirements need to be met for your protocol to be approved? Shante’ Mathes, Director of Research Protections and IACUC Administrator, will lead a 1 hour workshop featuring components such as an overview of the Research Protections IACUC website and where to find pertinent information, training and health form requirements, and how to submit a new protocol or amendment in Cayuse. This workshop will provide information for those that are new to the IACUC protocol submission process and refresher information for those with established IACUC protocols.Virtual

Some statistical tests, like t-tests and ANOVAs, are essential for comparing two or more groups on a variable of interest. However, many research questions focus instead on how specific variables relate to each other. A simple correlational analysis will describe the degree to which two variables move in relation to one another. Going further, regression analyses can be used to model the relationship between two or more variables and make predictions about a variable of interest. The power of these tests is evident in their widespread use in research and industry, but with great power comes great responsibility! Join us as we review these relational tests to get a better grasp on the statistical foundation and application of each.
