Good day everyone,

Some of my colleagues are planning to develop a Biostatistics course to
bridge the gap between undergraduate and postgraduate students. They are
planning to develop their material on using SPSS, and I am trying to
convince them to rather use R/RStudio. They are reluctant to switch,
because (1) they have been using SPSS quite some time, (2) SPSS is "easier"
than R, and (3) they don't seem to think that funding might become a
problem in future.

I came across the "Data Carpentry for Biologists" material in the discuss
list http://datacarpentry.org/semester-biology/ and I'm looking for
something similar specifically for Biostatistics/Biomedical statistics.

Any resources or referrals will be greatly appreciated!

Kind regards,
Bianca
