Are you interested in incorporating full data analysis projects into your classes? Do you have a CURE data set you need support analyzing and interpreting? Apply now to join us for the fall 2018 Passion-Driven Statistics/QUBES Faculty Mentoring Network (FMN). Participants in this FMN will plan and conduct quantitative analyses using large data sets and research questions of their choosing. Accepted applicants will create an educational module for their unique biology topic. While doing this, they will participate in weekly virtual sessions, receive support for conducting analyses on their chosen platform (i.e. SAS, R, Stata, Python or SPSS) and collaborate with others in the network. Early career participants are especially encouraged to apply.

- Participants will conduct a data-centered project of their choosing with data from a CURE and prepare a corresponding educational module for their students.
