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.      

Upcoming Events
Clinical and Translational Research Grand Rounds are sponsored by the Georgetown- Howard Universities Center for Clinical and Translational Science (GHUCCTS) and its partner institutions (Georgetown and Howard Universities, MedStar Health Research Institute, the Washington DC VAMC, and Oak Ridge National Lab) to bring together our diverse clinical and research communities to share research that spans disciplines and stages of translation to improve individual and community health.
