MHRI-GHUCCTS Monthly Statistical Seminar Series: Generalized Linear Models

Date Fri, Oct 20
Time 12: 00 PM - 1: 00 PM
Location Zoom

This month's MHRI-GHUCCTS Monthly Statistical Seminar Series will be held Friday, October 20, 2023, 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. 

This month's seminar will look at statistical analyses where the outcome variable is categorical: binary, ordinal or multinomial. These outcomes are typically analyzed by logistic regression. In addition, we will discuss analyses for count data (e.g., hospital ICU infections per month). As with linear regression, these analyses included assumptions about the relationships among variables – and we will look at the impact of violation of these assumptions.

This symposium explores how experts from different fields—ethics, data science, informatics, and epidemiology—work together to make sure health data are used responsibly. We will discuss real-world challenges like protecting people’s privacy, getting consent before using personal data, and ensuring that health decisions are fair for all communities, especially those who have been—and continue to be—underrepresented, underprivileged, or underserved (the "triple Us").
This panel discussion will center on reimagining the design and delivery of perinatal care to advance health equity and improve perinatal outcomes for all birthing people.
