MHRI-GHUCCTS Monthly Statistical Seminar Series: Fractional Polynomial Regression

Date	Fri, Feb 21
Time	12: 00 PM - 1: 00 PM
Location	Zoom

This month's MHRI-GHUCCTS Monthly Statistical Seminar Series will be held Friday, February 21, 2025, from 12 PM - 1 PM. This series features Dr. Paul Kolm, Associate Director in the Center for Biostatistics, Informatics, & Data Science (CBIDS) at MedStar Health Research Institute.

The topic of this month's seminar will be on how linear regression is defined by an intercept and slope of a straight line (i.e., constant slope) describing the relationship between 2 variables. In some cases, however, the relationship is non-linear (slope is not constant). We will discuss both integer and fractional polynomial regression for assessing non-linear relationships.
