Welcome to the second presentation in the new seminar series hosted by the Centre for Bioinformatics and Biostatistics. In this seminar Dr. Marrone will talk about a not so widely known yet important effect of basing your decisions using a p=0.05 as threshold. When and how this could be misleading, bringing to wrong conclusions and lack of reproducibility, and what can be done to avoid this problem.

Welcome!

The seminars will be held in the building Neo in Flemingsberg, but also on Zoom. Before the seminar, a limited number of sandwiches and drinks will be served on a “First come – first served” basis starting at 12:00.
