Online: Wednesday, March 1/23 @2pm Eastern time : Carleton’s Science Café presents “Understanding Rare Diseases Using Statistics and Data Science” Rare diseases are rare individually, but not collectively, resulting in substantial morbidity and mortality. Dr. Utkarsh Dang from the Department of Health Sciences will provide an overview of some types of data about Duchenne muscular dystrophy, and highlight their uses, the problems they have helped us solve, the importance of good statistical and data science models, and which learned lessons can also apply to an allelic rare disease, Becker muscular dystrophy.
