PHM 118 BIOSTATISTICS (Theory)
Cr. Hr. 3(3, 0)
Course Objectives: |
This course will develop the basic understanding of statistical approach, among the students, which plays a key role in various aspects of research on drugs. The bioassay in drug development is to measure the potency of some new compounds relative to some standard drugs in terms of the magnitude of their effects. Statistics is used to test as many assumptions involved in the assay. Statistics is also required to design the clinical trials to obtain pharmaceutical information of any drug. The statistical approach is also used to estimate parameters. Statistics also helps in documenting the results of a study. The statistical approach is required for screening of compounds for clinically active drugs. The knowledge of statistics is also required for the study of the dose response relationship. |
