Introduction
On our StatisticsBio7 YouTube channel, we have launched a dedicated MedCalc Podcast Series to help researchers, students, and professionals gain confidence in statistical analysis. Every week, we upload a new video episode that explains one important MedCalc feature—from basic descriptive statistics to advanced analytical methods.
In this blog post, I will give you an overview of the podcast series, highlight the key topics we cover, and explain how you can make the most of these lessons. Whether you are a beginner in biostatistics or a researcher looking to improve your data analysis workflow, these episodes will guide you step by step.
Let’s dive in!
