CLO3: Demonstrate accurate statistical analysis and interpretation of biological data (P4, PLO7)

Time: 12 hours

Weightage: 50% of total coursework                      

Scenario

You are a biostatistician embedded in a biomedical research team investigating the effects of treatments on biomarker levels and patient outcomes. The lead scientist has provided a dataset and a set of predefined research questions relevant to their ongoing project. Based on the team’s preliminary review, they have also proposed suitable statistical tests to be applied for each research question.

Your task is to conduct a comprehensive statistical analysis of the dataset, following the structure laid out by the research team. You are expected to validate assumptions, execute the proposed analyses (or justify alternatives), and interpret the findings in a clear and biologically meaningful manner.

About the Dataset

The dataset represents 36 human patients recruited into a clinical trial. Each patient was assigned to

• One of the two main treatment groups (Group2) – for example, Group A = standard care, Group B = experimental treatment
• One of three subgroups (Group3) – representing different dosages or drug formulations (T1, T2, T3).

Various biomarkers and clinical outcomes (e.g., recovery time, disease severity) were measured for each patient.
