Module description
***This module is under development***
Analysing large complex data sets is increasingly common within biomedical sciences specialisms. To extract meaningful information from such data sets, scientists often use computer programming languages to create bespoke analysis routines. In this practical module, we will introduce you to Matlab, a programme commonly used across the biomedical sciences for carrying out analyses of complex data sets. Most of the contact time in this module will consist of computer laboratory workshops, where students will learn the fundamentals of writing Matlab code. Once you have grasped these underpinning skills, students will learn how to apply these to specific analytical problems in biomedical sciences.
