Statistical graphics can be used for data analysis, displaying results, and for teaching statistical concepts. In the last fifty years, advances in computing and software development have shifted the creation of statistical graphics from the exclusive purview of the trained draftsman or graphic artist to provide universal access. In the first session of the NC TraCS Biostatistics Fall 2020 Seminar series, we discuss examples of a variety of statistical graphics that are intended to be inspirational of creativity and efficacy. 

The NC TraCS Biostatistics Seminar Series provides more in-depth discussion of select biostatistical topics for clinical and translational researchers who have basic quantitative training in biostatistical methods. Join us this fall for seminars on data visualization & statistical graphics, power analysis & sample size planning, and Bayesian clinical trial design
