Biostatistics Seminar Series: Choosing the right graphs and tables for your data

Fri. 2 Dec, 2022 10:30 am - 12:00 pm

There are a bewildering number of different kinds of graphs. There are conflicting recommendations (always show 0 on the axis, don't show 0 if the data don't include that value…). How do you know what's the right way to plot your data?

This talk will cover principles you can use to understand ways of presenting data and decide what's best for your situation.

Presenter: Jeff Laux, PhD
Research Associate, NC TraCS Biostatistics

Format: ~1 hour talk, 30 min Q&A

Wed. 14 Dec, 2022 10:00 am - 12:00 pm

Strengthening Engagement in Research: Building and Maintaining Relationships with Patient & Community Partners

Meaningful partnerships with patients, community members, or other collaborators involved in your research are invaluable. Projects are set up for success when care is intentionally given to developing and strengthening partnerships over time.

This online training will describe best practices for building mutually beneficial partnerships. The session will also cover common challenges that researchers and patient, community, and other partners experience when working together, along with suggested solutions.

Participation in our Engagement in Research 101 or Engagement in Research Nuts and Bolts trainings are not required to attend this session; however, some knowledge of engagement, whether from prior training(s) or personal experience, may foster deeper understanding of the material in this session.

The Engaging Patient, Community, and Other Partners in Your Research: Online Training Series is a 3-part online training series about engaging patient, community, and other partners in research. You may register for the entire series OR any single training session.

Part 1will focus on the basics of research engagement, providing an overview of patient and community engagement and its benefits, debunking common myths and misconceptions, and providing considerations and next steps for incorporating engagement approaches into your research.

Part 2 will cover specific engagement methods, including consultative community feedback sessions, advisory boards, and working with patient and community partners as members of a research team and/or Co-Principal Investigators.

Part 3 will focus on the nuances of building and maintaining partnerships, outlining best practices for developing and strengthening mutually beneficial partnerships and discussing common partnership challenges and solutions.

This training series was developed collaboratively with patient, community, and researcher partners and is co-sponsored by the UNC Lineberger Comprehensive Cancer Center and NC TraCS Institute.
