πŸͺ² Lab 05 (Week 08): Modelling Beetle Mortality Under Toxic Exposure

We analyse how exposure to different doses of an insecticide affects beetle mortality. The study examines eight groups subjected to varying levels of the insecticide to determine its lethal effects.

πŸš€ Lab 06 (Week 09): Space Shuttle O-Ring Failure

We investigate data from 23 space shuttle flights before the Challenger disaster, focusing on O-ring failures. The goal is to understand factors contributing to the disaster.

πŸ«€ Lab 07 (Week 10): Thrombolytic Treatment Trial

We analyse clinical trial data assessing the effectiveness of a thrombolytic (clot-busting) treatment for patients who have suffered a heart attack.

πŸš— Lab 08 (Week 11): Road Accidents & Hodgkin’s Disease

We explore two datasets:

  1. Road accidents: examining the relationship between traffic volume and accident numbers across different roads and times of day in Cambridge.
  2. Hodgkin’s disease: investigating how histological type and treatment response are linked among 538 patients.

🩸 Lab 09 (Week 12): Lymphoma Classification & Treatment

We analyse data from 30 lymphoma patients classified by sex, cell type, and treatment response. The focus is on understanding relationships between these factors.
