Description
The amount of data in laboratories is growing ever faster, while the demands on the accuracy and efficiency of analyses are increasing. Laboratory staff must not only deliver precise results, but also be able to evaluate complex data sets quickly and effectively.
In this context, the ability to analyze and interpret data intelligently becomes a decisive competitive advantage. Laboratory managers and employees are often faced with the challenge of gaining relevant insights from a flood of information - be it to optimize processes, identify trends or ensure quality.
In this seminar, you will learn how to gain valuable insights from your laboratory data by using graphical analysis, hypothesis testing, regression, multivariate statistics, machine learning and AI. Various analysis methods are presented using practical examples. You will work through the procedures, functions and applications and learn how to interpret the results correctly. Prepare yourself for the requirements of modern data analysis and use statistical methods effectively in your day-to-day work to create concrete added value for your laboratory and your clients.
Who this seminar is aimed at
Managers from laboratories and test centers in research, development, quality control and regulatory monitoring who want to get more out of their laboratory and test data
Quality management and quality assurance specialists who want to use statistical methods and software effectively
IT staff who want to learn more about laboratory and test data analysis
