Week 5

Investigator Meeting

This week you will conduct a live consultation with the investigator. Your ability to ask clear, structured questions will determine how effectively you can translate the research question into a statistical analysis plan.

By the end of this week, you will be able to:

1. Conduct a professional consultation with a real investigator.
2. Clarify the study question and identify next steps for statistical analysis.

In Class

This week's meeting will set the direction for your group's project, and the clarity of your questions will determine the quality of the analysis plan.

Because this is a professional consultation setting, you must be alert, active, and have your webcam on during the meeting.
